Kathryn Trainor Author of The Butterfly Ball for Milkbarn Kids
Author, Kathryn Trainor

Kathryn Trainor and her family make their home among the butterfly fields on their farm near Nashville, TN. She enjoys good books, time with friends, photography, gardening, and working with the dynamic team at Milkbarn Kids. If she could be a butterfly she’d be the Fiery Skipper, “skipping and bouncing to each tasty treat.”

My parents taught me to plant flowers and wait for the butterflies to come. And in the waiting for the butterflies, I’ve learned to recognize the beauty and color in our surroundings.

The Black Swallowtail
Soared into the Ball,
Sunning herself
On a flower so tall.

Beautifully dressed,
Adorned in white dots,
Bright blue on her wings
Highlighted her spots.
