ABOUT THE BOOK

A small girl with a passion for nature turns to her new passion for art as the seasons turn colder.   Claudia loves butterflies. Blue ones. Yellow ones. Purple ones with dots. And since she can't take them home, she paints them in all their beautiful colors.  But when winter comes, there are no more butterflies to paint...until she finds a little moth. Suddenly, Claudia sees winter in a whole new light.
