Summary

When a boy’s favourite meadow disappears, so does the butterfly he has come to love. Guided by his grandmother’s stories, shaped by her life as a wildlife conservationist, he discovers a bigger truth: when wild spaces vanish, so do the creatures that depend on them. Refusing to give up, he inspires his community to create the wildest neighbourhood, where insects and wildlife can thrive once again.

Based on real research into the worldwide decline of butterflies.
