I am the Great Drosselmeyer, maker of stories and the all-seeing eye. Why am I doing this, you ask? Because death is not entertaining. All the peace and harmony, and happy endings I see day-by-day is torturing me on my death bed. And people would like stories where other people, and not themselves, are decently miserable. I want drama! I want to see scenes that would make the hairs on my arms stand up in pure excitement! I want to see my characters cry their hearts out as they lose their souls in exchange for the safety of their loved ones! I would want to narrate to you a delicious story of a boy and his dinner.

In this story for children ages 4-8, Humphrey, a butterfly, is afraid and ignores the whisper in his heart that tells him to fly. It takes the encouragement of his best friend, Zoot, to get him to listen and let go, so he can experience the wide, wide world.
