Description
"Far, far away from here in the magical Butterfly Kingdom live the brilliant and joyful butterfly folk. The little butterfly children are called chrysalids." The butterfly children love dancing among the flowers and visiting their little brothers and sisters, the caterpillars. Then, on the first day of spring, they finally get their wings! The sky is full of peacock, swallowtail, cabbage and red admiral butterflies excitedly waiting to begin a torchlight procession.

Young readers will love meeting the cheeky baby caterpillars and the adventurous butterfly children and will come to understand about the life cycle of a butterfly in a unique and charming way. Sibylle von Olfers' vintage stories of nature children have been loved by generations. The whimsical tales are accompanied by beautiful art nouveau illustrations of characterful creatures, cheerful plants and flowers and magical little folk.

This wonderful mini gift edition of The Story of the Butterfly Children reproduces Olfers' classic illustrations and beloved story in an adorable small format -- ideal for little hands. The Sibylle von Olfers library also includes full size editions, and board books for very young children.
