Book Description
As Charlie the Caterpillar meets one group of animals after another playing together and having fun, he asks if he can join in. But each time he's told not welcome -- because he's ugly. As winter approaches, Charlie spins himself a cocoon. When spring arrives, the cocoon opens and out comes Charlie -- now a beautiful butterfly. Everyone wants him to be part of their group. But Charlie puts these fair-weather friends properly in their place in this heartwarming story about the meaning of true friendship.


Ingram
In this heartwarming story, Charlie the caterpillar can't find anyone to play with him. Every time he asks if he can join the fun, he gets the same reply: "No! Now giddadda here!" Then spring arrives and Charlie comes out of his cocoon as a beautiful butterfly--and everyone wants him to be a part of their group. Full-color illustrations.


From School Library Journal
When Charlie the caterpillar wants to play, the other creatures refuse because they find him ugly. "Now giddadda here!" they tell him. Of course, Charlie eventually makes a cocoon, turns into a beautiful butterfly, and finds that the animals who scorned him now want his company. Very predictable stuff, this has little to recommend it. Santoro is a technically proficient illustrator but his cutesy cartoon drawings of Charlie are as trite as can be. No competition for Carle's Very Hungry Caterpillar (Putnam, 1981) here.


Children's Literature
In this heartwarming story about the meaning of true friendship, Charlie the caterpillar is rejected by various groups of animals because he is "too ugly." After he spins his cocoon and becomes a beautiful butterfly, all the animals want to play with him. Instead of accepting their invitations, Charlie decides to befriend a sad caterpillar named Katie.
