Yellow butterfly

A universal story of war and resilience told through the eyes of a child. This wordless book plunges the reader into a dark world, filled with barbed wire and bombs, where innocence seems in peril. As he flees the chaos, the child sees a yellow butterfly which becomes his symbolic guide. This butterfly, quickly joined by others, embodies the promise of freedom, illuminating the path to hope and peace. Together, they transform her view of her torn country, which she imagines bathed in light and serenity. Yellow Butterfly is a poignant visual work that transcends words to explore the scars of war and the strength of hope. Oleksandr Shatokhin uses powerful visual metaphors to capture the impact of conflict on children, while celebrating their capacity for resilience. Yellow Butterfly is not just a story, but a call for peace, addressed to all ages. At the end of the book, a guide covers the following two topics: "How to read a book without text" and "How to talk to children about difficult subjects like war." A children's album by Oleksandr Shotakhin.
