An existential odyssey begins as Dragonfly and Butterfly set out to find answers to the conflicting truths they've been taught. On their journey, they encounter many animals with varying perceptions of the world. A kind and gentle Butterfly ponders life while peering into the waters of a lake. What stares back is not a reflection but a nymph, who has lived many years alone in his watery domain. When the nymph breaks through the surface into the world, he transforms into Dragonfly, and the two friends set off together, seeking answers from the wind. On their travels, they meet animals whose stories mirror Indigenous beliefs and ideologies, and they experience seasonal changes that align with the Chinese Daoist five seasons. Tale of Dragonfly is part fable and part magic-a quest for truth and meaning in the exploration of life and death. Readers of all ages will enjoy this philosophical tale's journey into the unknown.
