The Rock and the Butterfly Magical Creatures Taylor Edwards’s family might notThe rock was always there until, one day, it wasn't. The rock and the butterfly are a perfect fit. The butterfly takes shelter on the steady rock after hours of flittering and fluttering, and the rock loves to hear of the butterfly's adventures after a long day of sitting in one spot.
