| Summary, etc. |
This book is the illustrated story of Lisa, a little girl dying of cancer, and traces a parallel between her journey towards dying and, possibly, an afterlife by comparison with the lifecycle of a butterfly. Lisa meets a chatty caterpillar in her garden and names her Sonya. Sonya is panicking about strange feelings in her body but Lisa reassures her that she will transform into a beautiful Monarch butterfly. Lisa continues to reassure Sonya as the caterpillar begins to change into a chrysalis, even as Lisa herself returns to hospital to fight cancer, a fight she doesn't win. Childhood death is sensitively treated, with an ending that can be interpreted as evidence of some form of afterlife or simply coincidence, making it a suitable story for people with religious beliefs and those who do not subscribe to a belief in life after death. It will help to engage in conversations with children about dying and death.<br/>Audience: Child 8 – 10 years, or younger with an accompanying adult; Professional; Adult caregiver |
