Overview

Humanity has perished.Following cataclysmic volcanic eruptions around the world, Chayton and Chenoa are the last survivors on the island of Bali. With all influences and obligations of school, technology, and work wiped away, the children journey through loss, survival, reflection, and understanding as they witness the emergence of a new world.What is the meaning of life when everything is gone? Is life worth living? Butterfly is a father's story dedicated to his children. Using his two children as the main characters, the author utilizes the vehicle of loss to create a world where his children are forced to face the extreme challenges of life. The fast-paced story takes the children on a challenging adventure through the world of Bali. Young readers will relate to the trials of the teen characters while older readers will understand a father's love for his children. The children work to save the animals locked in the zoos and pens. They learn to hunt and fish and forage for their own food. They dive the newly regenerated and flourishing oceans witnessing a world only seen in movies and animation. They continue to desperately seek any other human life, only to come face to face with the depravity of humanity. They face the brink of death, teetering in a world where with the loss of either of them, the other will be left alone. Yet, while destruction and loss provide the foundation of the story, Butterfly is a story of hope. From the ashes emerges a world that we all desire: clean blue oceans and rivers, flourishing forests, and pristine air. Life returns to the planet, and we witness this rebirth through the eyes of two young children as elephants and tigers once again roam across the island of Bali. Butterfly is a dystopian novel of hope, a story of love and beauty in a world gone awry.
