I liked this book because it is factual about how caterpillars change into butterflies, because you can see a picture of the chrysalis, I like how colourful it is. I would definitely would tell my friends about this book.
I liked it whet it was a butterfly, and the cattepilar got sick and had to eat a leaf.
