LITTLE BUTTERFLY by Laura Logan is a wordless picture book about the power of small acts of kindness. The style of illustration is absolutely gorgeous and is hands down my favorite part of the book. The author/illustrator uses gentle and soft lines which are strangely comforting and relaxing. Occasional infusions of red and blue color accent the story perfectly. However, particularly in the beginning, the story lacks in emotional build up for bigger scenes.
The messages inside the story are powerful and good for any age to understand. In the beginning, the child gets her cape ripped, just like a nearby butterfly’s wing. Through the story, readers understand that just because something is broken, does not mean it is lesser or without value. In addition, it shows that when people (or butterflies) who are broken help each other with kindness, beautiful results can happen.
This is a story perfect for daydreamers, for children who love exploring and imagination. For young learners, the author provides a helpful note at the end of the story that explains a bit more about the scientific details of butterflies and their life cycles. It would be a rare reader indeed who wouldn’t feel uplifted by the end of this sweet picture book.
