About this title

Synopsis

This clever send-up of every child's biggest challenge―being patient!―is a STEM-friendly, laugh-out-loud comedy about metamorphosis.

"Will delight fans of Mo Willems's "Pigeon" series... absolutely charming." -- School Library Journal

"Super-charged." -- The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, starred review

"HEY! What are you guys doing?"

"We're going to metamorphosize."

"Meta-WHAT-now?"

"Transform into butterflies."

"Right. Right. I knew that... WAIT?! You're telling me I can become a BUTTERFLY?"

"Yes."

"With wings?"

"Yes."

"Wait for ME!!"

Ross Burach's hilarious, tongue-in-cheek exploration of metamorphosis will make you flutter with glee, while also providing real facts about how caterpillars transform into butterflies.
