Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
This is the story of Gary Grey Moth who desperately wants to be seen and Florence Butterfly who has had enough of being noticed. What would happen if they swapped cardigans and could each be the bug they always wanted to be?
This fast-paced and perceptive story is about expectations and identity, told from the unlikely but utterly relatable perspectives of a moth and a butterfly. They're not so different, if you really think about it.
From Melbourne-based author Charlotte Lance and internationally renowned artist David Booth (also known as Ghostpatrol), comes this humorous, insightful coming-of-age junior fiction novel, illustrated in 2/c throughout.
"Perspective is everything in this illustrated chapter book, which revolves around two insects who couldn't be more different.... Booth's grayscale doodles, accented with yellow, are the perfect complement for this quirky celebration of self-expression." Booklist
