Once upon a time in a small village called Navajo, located somewhere in Africa . . . A faraway land. A precious object stolen from a king by a mysterious thief. The quest of a young boy with a destiny greater than any he dares to dream. As brave young Eli follows a strange butterfly into the jungle, across plains and hills, along dry creek beds and deep, sluggish rivers, he is aided in his search by a number of other unconventional, and unforgettable, jungle characters. A charming fable about trust, faith, friends, and determination.
