Jan the Butterfly is a colorful tale with fantastic illustrations, and it also rhymes. It is the author's fourth book! He really loves writing children's books because he wants kids to be entertained, but more importantly, to get good morals out of his stories! This story, Jan the Butterfly, is not only entertaining, but it is also educational. It teaches young children the four stages of metamorphosis that a butterfly goes through. I really hope you and your kids enjoy the book!
David Baer
David Baer is a Philadelphia writer and filmmaker whose work blends myth with grounded human realism, treating ancient narratives as speculative historical fiction. He previously worked as an editor for CBS Evening News, CBS Morning News, and a range of independent film and television projects, and later founded Baer Studios, a digital media and production company.
His storytelling focuses on the hidden machinery behind belief systems-imagining how gods, empires, and ordinary people collide to shape the narratives cultures live by. His essays have appeared in The Startup and the satirical blog Paranoid Echo Chamber.
Baer is also co-founder of CharacterFoundry.io, a worldbuilding platform for authors and game designers. The Hidden War of Exodus is the first book in The Achilles Chronicles, a multi-volume series that follows Achilles through the major turning points of human history, retelling ancient myth as grounded historical reality.
