In this beautiful nonfiction biography, a Robert F. Sibert Medal winner, the Newbery Honor–winning author Joyce Sidman introduces readers to one of the first female entomologists and a woman who flouted convention in the pursuit of knowledge and her passion for insects. One of the first naturalists to observe live insects directly, Maria Sibylla Merian was also one of the first to document the metamorphosis of the butterfly. Richly illustrated throughout with full-color original paintings by Merian herself, The Grew Who Drew Butterflies will enthrall young scientists. Bugs, of all kinds, were considered to be “born of mud” and to be “beasts of the devil.” Why would anyone, let alone a girl, want to study and observe them? The Girl Who Drew Butterflies answers this question.

Lisa Kleypas says "nobody does it better" than USA Today bestselling author Elizabeth Bevarly. Find out why in this rich, emotional new novel... Once upon a time, in Manitou Hills, there was a home so radiant and vivacious it was christened with its own name: Fleurissant. Now it's in ruins, forgotten and neglected-except by a woman who sees her own life reflected in the broken windows of that house on Butterfly Way... As a child, from afar, Eugenie Dashner loved Fleurissant and the elegant, youthful fantasies it provided. Now, with a failed marriage behind her, a troubled son at her side, and a contentious and bitter mother to care for, Eugenie returns to the Louisville neighborhood of Manitou Hills to fulfill a dream: buy and renovate the house that once meant so much to her, and maybe, in the process, rebuild her own life. Day by day, as the house reveals more and more of its forgotten beauty, Eugenie sees her dream come to fruition-especially when the attentions of two men help to reawaken in her feelings of romance and passion she thought were gone forever. As she navigates her rediscovered emotions, Eugenie comes to realize that there is no such thing as irreparable damage-not in herself, not in the house on Butterfly Way, and not in the family who now calls it home...

This short story is about a beautiful seductive and radiant young lady that I call my fictional beautiful butterfly, that I watched over from the deep dark shadows, distant and invisible to all. She is hunted and pursued by all men because of her beauty and amazingly tight body, only to be captured and shown off as a trophy or conquest. I was enlisted by the gods to protect this creature because man only sees a beautiful young lady not what she really is, a goddess.

Butterfly Faith is a book about Hope, Faith, and how they coincide with God's purpose for our lives. God is a God of purpose and He created each person with a plan in mind. No one was created just because God was bored. God has a purpose for every person. The butterfly has a purpose because God created it and God never makes anything without knowing why he made it first. So if you are trying to figure out why you were created, allow God to minister to your spirit. God says in His word that He has a plan for each of us. Plans to prosper us. Plans to give us a Hope and a future. Hope fuels faith and faith moves us closer to our purpose. Without faith it is impossible to please God. The revelation that I received from the Holy Spirit allowed me to pen how our faith correlates with the process the caterpillar goes through in order to fulfill its purpose. Just like the caterpillar we too can emerge into our purpose if we don't lose hope, keep the faith and pursue God for our purpose. Seek Him first always.

A chance encounter on a plane throws together Doha, a fashion designer unhappily married to a leading figure in the Mubarak regime, and Ashraf, an academic and leading dissident. The story of their relationship and Doha's self-discovery runs alongside a young Egyptian's search for the mother he never knew, and these intersecting narratives unfold against the background of political protests that culminate in the overthrow of the regime. A moving and at times humorous story, Butterfly Wings is an extended allegory of Egypt's modern experience of authoritarian rule and explores the fractures and challenges of a society at the moment of revolutionary transformation. Mohamed Salmawy's almost prophetic novel was first published in Arabic immediately prior to the events of 25 January 2011, and has been celebrated as 'the novel that predicted the Revolution.'

The title of this book is Butterfly Prayers. It is a book that I decided to write based on prayers that I have prayed and experiences that I had to encounter to get through life. The butterfly symbolizes the scars on my face in the shape of a butterfly and the prayers are what I pray daily to keep my eyes focused on GOD despite the pain I encounter on a daily basis. Through these prayers GOD speaks to me and he will speak to you as well. Also my children, my family, and friends are the ones that constantly remind that life is worth living and it will come with trials and tribulations but GODS Grace and mercy is what sees me though my daily journey. I know that at first the prayers seem small but one day they will blossom and fly.
