A heartening story of how coming together and working as a team can produce wonderful results.

When Binky turns from caterpillar to butterfly, it's a disaster! His wings won't work and poor Binky can't fly. Luckily, the spiders, silkworms and bees come to his aid. Together they work out how to give Binky a pair of bright, strong wings.

Book Features:
  • A gently-told but compelling story which encourages empathy with, and understanding of, those who feel isolated and disadvantaged because of a disability.
  • A celebration of teamwork, when a diverse group come together and achieve something special and important.
  • Beautifully illustrated by an up and coming illustrator with an international following.
