It was a typically cold, quiet January day, and the possibility of the new year—of new discoveries and new challenges—reawakened an old dream of Lea’s: to see every Danish butterfly species in one year. At first, the goal felt impossible—Lea knew almost nothing about butterflies, after all—but she persevered, creating a color-coded tracking system that mapped butterfly regions and flight times with meticulous care. As the project developed, what was at first a simple exercise in discovery became an intimate reckoning with transformation and rebirth, the butterfly’s fleeting existence knitting together beginnings, endings, and the life made in-between.“\u003ci\u003eThe Butterfly Season \u003c\/i\u003eis an inspiring love letter to the magic of the natural world, in all its beauty and complexity and joy—an unforgettable reminder that wonder awakens the heart.” \u003cb\u003e—Amy Tan, author of \u003ci\u003eThe Backyard Bird Chronicles\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eLEA KORSGAARD is an award-winning journalist and author.
