When the butterfly lion died it couldn't feel anything because it was dead! :(

Read the book!! I read it a long time ago so this might be wrong, but I do think it is right At a certain time, when the woman and boy look out the window, they see butterflies, they create a picture of a lion cub, the lion the woman talks about. When she was young she played with the lion cub but it died and the butterflies make up the picture of the cub ever since! I am really not that sure but that is what I can remember! Hope This Helps! ;)
Sure, along with the Shark Horse and the Dragonfly Snake.
