On a Butterfly's Wing

Lessons From Nature on Embracing Change

A book written for the chrysalis we carry inside of us
waiting to expand its wings in a new aspect of life.

In our era of global change, we need stories that offer hope and positive solutions to the challenges we face….

‘On a Butterfly’s Wing’ is one of those stories.

A celebration of life and a tribute to our constant process of transformation. It is also a call for action for the protection of butterflies, offering positive suggestions on how we can team up with pollinators to help each other create a better world for both. Fusing science, art, philosophy and conservation, it relates the story of La Reme, a flightless butterfly who narrates her life experience from egg to death and beyond.  Interwoven with La Reme’s life cycle is the life cycle of Amatxi, a lovely lady who is facing her own death.

Both stories are true, and they intertwine in reflections on our own transformations and on the unique privilege of being alive.

All royalties from the sale of this book are donated to the conservation of butterflies and their habitats. This reflects the book’s core message of hope, transformation, and our shared responsibility toward the natural world.
