The Turtle and The Butterfly

About the Book

A story about a turtle who wants wings, and the magic butterfly that can give them to her. . . .but instead the butterfly offers the turtle three more precious gifts—a glimpse of her dreamed-of life, an appreciation for her own fine features and the life she already has, and the beginning of a very special friendship.
