This book did a really great job into going into detail about the butterfly's life cycle.

[Loraine · Rating 4 out of 5]

SUMMARY: Follows a caterpillar as it changes into a butterfly, from its pupa stage throught its transformation into a chrysalis to its metamorphosis into a butterfly newly emerged from a sticky cocoon.

REVIEW: This was a perfect book with simple pictures to explain to our 3 year old grandson how a caterpillar turned into a butterfly. Would be a great beginning reader for a child who is interested in this subject or general science.

I'm a Caterpillar by Jean Marzollo is a children's non-fiction picture book. It is categorized as a level 1 Beginning Reader book. The artwork throughout this book is unique in my opinion because the pictures are made out of paper. This book travels through the entire lifespan of a caterpillar, ending with the life cycle and asking the questions, "What comes next?" Non-fiction.

This is the perfect book for early readers to learn the cycle of a caterpillar becoming a butterfly. The pictures help tell the story and repetition of some of the words is very helpful to new readers.

A good spring read.

Science Fiction:
This book is great to use when teaching about caterpillars and the changes that go throw in order to become a butterfly. They use excellent, age appropriate, vocabulary. This book is best for kindergarten or first grade.

didn't really stand out to me--must not have to the girls either. It was only requested once.

Probably the most appealing easy reader on the topic of the transformation of caterpillar to butterfly that I have seen up to this point. Simple. Attractive illustrations.
