One of my son's favorite book that he is not tired of reading again and again is the book "I'm a Caterpillar " by Jean Marzollo. The book is one of the many children's book that the school sent home to the students for free.
It is a textured-paper with cute illustrations of a life cycle of a caterpillar, to a pupa then to a beautiful butterfly. The author's extra-large print and short sentences enables first graders to read it alone. The colorful pages of the book and the story presents just enough facts about the life cycle of a caterpillar to interest young kids.
The book was written for kindergarten to 2nd Grade students and comes in English and Spanish version, Soy Una Oruga. To get a copy just go to amazon.com and other online store for $0.99 -3.99.
I wrote this book to teach beginning readers about caterpillars. It’s a good thing I did my research. Because when I started, I thought that butterflies made cocoons. Not true! A butterfly makes a chrysalis. A moth makes a cocoon. So, if you write about science, please always do your research. Collage artist Judith Moffatt made the beautiful pictures out of paper. My favorite picture is the one of the caterpillar each a leaf. This is what I wrote for that page: Jean Marzollo.

I'm a Caterpillar then a Butterfly
Would have to buy one for my little cousin.
ReplyDeleteI think we also studied the life cycle of a butterfly when we were younger.
ReplyDeleteThis is the kind of book I would have loved to use read to my students if I am still teaching in pre-school. Would surely tell my friends with pre-schoolers to read this to their children, and hey this can add to my collection of childrens books as well.:)
