The Butterfly StoryBook (2013)

STORIES WRITTEN BY CHILDREN FOR CHILDREN: A project of The Rotary E-Club of the Caribbean 7020 The Butterfly StoryBook is a unique collection of ten short stories for children written by the 2013 winners of an annual contest sponsored by the Rotary E-Club of the Caribbean 7020. The authors are all between the ages of seven and eleven and each story is an illustration of good deeds, emphasizing the motto of Rotary International, Service Above Self. Readers learn about subjects such as caring for animals illustrated in Catrice Connor's story of "When I became mummy to eleven baby chicks" or in "Fluffy gets lost" by Jayda Woolery. Other stories are about the less fortunate such as "The boy who helped a homeless person" by Kymani Williams or Catya Dauba's "Mistreated children" The goal of this Rotary project is to improve literacy throughout the world by providing a book that can be read by children in all parts of the world, at the same time giving young authors an opportunity to be published. Children will enjoy reading stories which provide an insight into the lives of the people in the Caribbean as seen through the eyes of children their own age. The book is available in both English and French. Through your purchase and enjoyment of the Butterfly Storybook, you can support Rotary in its commitment to literacy throughout the world. 100% of royalties support the humanitarian service of Rotary.
