be near me butterfly
​
​
By Mindy Smart Owens & Allison Owens Miller
​
Meet Miss B, a brave Yellow Swallowtail butterfly who lives in Ellen’s back yard. Life seems carefree until one day Miss B witnesses extraordinary sadness. Miss B finds Ellen and her dying mother discussing life’s most difficult questions: How do we deal with grief when someone we love dies? How do we stay connected after death?
Flutter along Miss B’s inspiring journey as she explores her faith, meets unexpected friends, and transforms into a sign of hope for Ellen. You may ultimately discover what God can do for you in your biggest moments of doubt and grief.
Whimsy and wise characters will help you and your loved ones discover ways to find encouragement and wisdom.
Hope and love always prevails, especially in our moments of grief and loss.
A story of hope and remembrance in the midst of grief
