Synopsis

In this beautifully illustrated book, a boy learns the virtue of patience when he finds a butterfly warming in the sun. Though waiting is hard, its reward can produce the most wonderful results. As a boy, John Hope lay in the harsh Florida grass in the quiet evenings staring at the stars, bugs hopping, crickets chirping. His older brother Mike lay beside him and they dreamed of what life would be when they grew up. What would they be? How would they look like? Where would they live? Like the boy in this story, John wanted to grab hold of the future and make it his. Time moves too slow for boys lying in their front yard. Sometimes one of the hardest things to do is to wait. Today, John still struggles with patience. He writes his stories one page at a time, one word at a time.
