From the Inside Flap
In his latest adventure, Clovis Crawfish is ready for bed as the sun begins setting on the bayou and the Cigale-de-Bois brothers start warming up for their nightly concert. But as something yellow flutters overhead and lands on his mud house, Clovis realizes bed will have to wait. Clovis's surprise visitor introduces herself as Silvie Sulphur--a member of the butterfly family--and she is looking for a home. Clovis and his friends find her the perfect place and get her happily settled. Soon after, an unexpected storm sends everyone scurrying for cover. Clovis quickly realizes that Silvie is unaccounted for, but with his quick thinking, Silvie makes it home safe and sound. However, before they can celebrate, the friends must band together, this time to rebuild Clovis's melted mud home.
With enchanting characters, a fun song, and simple French phrases, the newest addition to the Clovis Crawfish series will once again delight readers, both old and new.
