The Butterfly and The CaterpillarAdapted by: Joseph Lauren

One summer morning, a butterfly rested on a beautiful rose. While she sipped the sweet nectar from the flower, she saw a caterpillar crawl up the garden wall. “Horrors!” the butterfly exclaimed, “Stop! Don’t come near me. I’m ashamed to be seen where you are.”Ask: Why do you think was the butterfly ashamed?

The caterpillar continued crawling. He munched on the leaf without listening to the butterfly’s cry. “Where are your wings? What are you eating?” the butterfly asked. Ask: Does the caterpillar have wings?If he has as the butterfly claimed then,where are they? The caterpillar walked ahead. Then he said, “Eight days ago, young butterfly, you were the same as I am. One night from today, my wings will grow. I would fly and see all the bright and beautiful flowers.”

Ask: How did the butterfly looks like eight days ago? “I’m sure my wings would be brighter and more beautiful than yours. So, go, fly but try not to be so proud. Each caterpillar is given a chance to become a butterfly. We are but the same. ” Ask: What will happen to caterpillar in the days to come? What should all butterflies need to remember while flying?
