“The illustrations for this book are super cute, and the story is very sweet. The transformation of the caterpillar into the butterfly followed by the "transformation" of these two friends teach a little something about the animal kingdom and creative thinking.”

“This book is really sweet. I love that the caterpillar sparked their curiosity and prompted them to try out an experiment of their own! The illustrations in this book are sweet to match the feel of the story, and I love the soft, beautiful colors!”
