Butterfly Moments

Be prepared to be deeply moved by the stories of the adolescents you will meet in Butterfly Moments. This unique collection of real life encounters, compassionately shared by Caroline Green, is set an inner-city high school on the edge of Hillbrow. Here, where poverty dictates, gangsters call the shots and temptations beckon, Caroline pioneered a transformational programme entitled The Butterfly Movement. During the eight years she served as the student counsellor, she witnessed countless students overcome the formidable challenges they faced.

Interspersed are some entertaining anecdotes and apology notes for some light-hearted relief.

May your own journey be enriched by theirs.

You will read this book, and want to read it again, and take lessons from it. In this time of turbulence in our country, we need inspiration; we need to relate; and we need to help where we can. The Butterfly Lady's book will, I have no doubt, inspire all who read it.
