With colorful metaphors and vibrant imagery, A Box of Butterflies takes the reader on a journey of self-discovery and emotional reflection, identifying not just love, but jealousy, anger, worry, and a host of other emotions.
When Ruby asks Robot if he loved the story as much as she did, he tells her that he doesn amp rsquo t know what love is. If it amp rsquo s not something he can see, then what could it be?
Ruby describes emotions to her Robot. She teaches him what each feels like ( amp ldquo love feels like a box of butterflies! amp rdquo ) and when she feels them ( amp ldquo I sometimes feel that way when I amp rsquo m told no more TV! amp rdquo ).
Included is a Note to Parents and Caregivers by Elizabeth McCallum, PhD, that further explores the importance of learning about emotions.
amp quot I love that story, amp quot said Ruby. amp quot Did you love it too? amp quot
amp quot Robot is just a machine. Robot cannot feel love. amp quot
Robot paused for a moment and said, amp quot What does love feel like? amp quot
