About the Book
Initially inspired by Marie Adele Garnier's Caterpillar Document, this is a little book for children, but primarily for those, who are currently trying to come to terms with the loss of a loved one, or who have lost a relative or friend in the past. Using rhyme and illustrated with caricature drawings, the book attempts to explain in an acceptable way that the loss of someone dear may not necessarily mean the end of the relationship. Using the metamorphosis of caterpillar to butterfly inspires the hope that there is life beyond what we experience on earth. The author attempts to do this without reference to religious persuasion, thus making the book acceptable to a wider range of readers.
