Review by Rokaya:
This is a lovely book with lots of colors and animations. Children can learn about the cycle of a butterfly by watching this hungry caterpillar eat everything in sight. The flip book also makes it more fun to read.
This book would be useful when teaching...
This would be a great book to use when teaching the class about the life cycle of a butterfly. An activity: students can draw the processes that a caterpillar goes through before becoming a butterfly.
