A lyrical, deeply moving story of heritage, migration, and belonging — inspired by the true history of the Jewish community of Cochin, India.

When young Leah learns that her family will soon leave their beloved city of Cochin, India, to move to Israel, her heart is torn between excitement and sorrow. Comforted by a magical blue butterfly, Leah comes to understand that home is not just a place — it’s the stories and memories we carry with us.

Written by Ariana Mizrahi in collaboration with the Indian Jewish Heritage Center and illustrated by the celebrated artist Siona Benjamin, The Blue Butterfly of Cochin celebrates the enduring strength of Jewish identity and the beauty of multicultural life.

Perfect for classrooms, story hours, and family reading during Jewish holidays or Indian cultural celebrations.
