About the Book

The Buffalo and the Butterfly is a high-end picture story with a dual theme of friendship for children and romance for adults. The artwork depicts stark, beautiful Antelope Island in the Great Salt Lake.

Butterfly blends international motifs. Butterflies are a romantic feminine symbol, especially in East Asian theatrical tradition. Yet the geographic setting and the Buffalo character invoke the flavor of Indian love stories in the American West.

As a tale exploring the timeless dilemma of love, loneliness, and mutual choices, Butterfly is a perfect gift for the loved one who is missed now or will be missed in the near future.
