PreSchool-Grade 1-This is the tale of a "creepy-crawly bug" (Monarch caterpillar), who says "I don't know much, but I know what I know. I gotta go! I gotta go! I gotta go to Mexico!" On her long trek, she meets a grasshopper and an ant, takes a "nice long rest" (metamorphosis), and finally reaches the hibernation grove in Mexico. She wakens in spring to "dance" with another creepy-crawly bug before heading north again to lay her eggs-"-the reason for everything." An author's note and the jacket blurb provide some factual fodder for parents and teachers. Small, full-color illustrations accompany the text. They are attractive, but unremarkable. For a supremely better introduction to the miraculous world of butterfly metamorphosis, try Deborah Heiligman's From Caterpillar to Butterfly (HarperCollins, 1996) or Mary Ling's Butterfly (DK, 1992); for Monarchs in particular use Gail Gibbons's Monarch Butterfly (Holiday, 1989); and for the mysteries of migration, April Pulley Sayre's poetic Home at Last: A Song of Migration (Holt, 1998) is a gem.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
My 3 1/2 year old daughter and I simply love this book! She asks me to read it to her almost every day, which pleases me immensely (especially since the previous favorite was Snow White!). She is fascinated by the transformation of a bug/caterpillar into a butterfly, and by the cyclical nature of the book. She likes to flip from the last page to the first to point out that they are the same. "It's starting all over again!" she says. I actually got choked up when I first read the line which appears immediately after the butterfly has laid her first eggs: "It was the reason for everything." This is for me the central message of the book and what really speaks to me-- that despite everything and against all odds, life does go inexplicably on. It is such a positive message. I hope that many readers will get to expereince the wonder and power of this seemingly simple, beautiful little book. |
