And the colors! They took Prilla’s breath away. There were shades of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, shimmery gold, burnished copper, and shining silver. They were more beautiful than the biggest and brightest rainbow Prilla had ever seen.

The sun was barely up and she’d already found the butterflies. Why, this is going to be easy! Prilla smiled. She’d be done so early, she would have plenty of time for a nap and a blink over to the mainland before dinner.

Taking a deep breath, she landed quietly in the middle of the butterfly herd. That was when she realized she wasn’t sure what to do next. Finding the group was one thing. But Prilla didn’t know the first thing about herding them.

“Um, hello, butterflies,” she said uncertainly. Prilla knew that the butterflies weren’t able to understand her. But that didn’t stop her from talking to them anyway. “I’ll be your herder today. Our first stop will be Flower Field,” she said.

Flower Field was a nearby meadow filled with wildflowers of all shapes, sizes, and colors—stately Queen Anne’s lace, snappy black-eyed Susans, lovely Indian paintbrush. It seemed like a perfect place for butterflies

“So let’s go!” Prilla said, clapping her hands.

And to her delight, all the butterflies lifted off into the air!

How wonderful! Prilla thought as they rose. They began to circle. So far so good.

But without warning, the butterflies started to turn off in different directions. Prilla’s heart sank. This wasn’t how it was supposed to be!

“Hey, wait!” Prilla shouted. She chased after a blue and purple butterfly and waved her hands to get it to stay with the others.

But just as she reached it, the butterfly dropped several inches in the air. Prilla found herself headed right for a tree branch! At the last second, she ducked under it.

Just then, she noticed that a tiny silvery yellow butterfly had gotten quite far away from the others. That wouldn’t do at all! Prilla took off after it and chased it back to the herd.
