[ 책 소개 ]
나비의 일대기를 통해서 어린 아이들에게 놀라운 자연의 경이를 접하게 해줄 수 있는 책입니다.
잎에 붙어 있는 좁쌀같이 조그만 알에서 애벌레가 부화되어 나오고, 이 애벌레는 잎사귀를 갉아먹으며 계속 성장합니다. 애벌레는 탈피를 거듭하면서 점점 몸집이 커지지요. 새가 와서 자기를 잡아먹으려고 하면 애벌레의 머리에서는 뿔과 같이 생긴 조그만 대롱 두개가 튀어나오고 여기서 악취를 뿜어내서 새의 식욕을 떨어뜨리지요. 왕성하게 먹으면서 계속 자라던 애벌레는 어느날 갑자기 먹는 것을 중단하고는 나무줄기에 매달려서 다시 한번 껍질을 벗고는 단단한 고치가 되어 나비가 되기를 기다립니다. 단단한 고치 속에서 애벌레는 다리와 날개가 자라나고 마침내 고치를 뚫고 나와 아름다운 나비가 되어 하늘로 날아갑니다...
문장은 비교적 쉽고 간결하며, 펜과 물감을 이용한 그림은 매우 세밀하면서도 아름답습니다. 책 말미에는 나비들을 정원으로 불러들여서 알을 낳고 나비가 되게 할 수 있는 방법을 수록하고 있습니다.

Book description
In a field of lacy leaves, a small caterpillar hatches, grows, and sheds its skin, becoming a smooth, green creeper. It eats and changes some more, then in a sequence of remarkable close-ups, spins a sliken sling in which to pupate--until it finally bursts forth as a brilliant black swallowtail butterfly. Includes suggestions on how children can grow butterfiles in their own gardens. Color throughout. Full color.
School Library Journal
For young children, there's no better way to introduce the world of science than through one of nature's miracles, and it is difficult to find a better example than in this wondrous story of birth and transformation. ``Imagine you are someone small. . .'' So begins the readers' journey as a tiny caterpillar embarking on one of life's odysseys. The story goes through the stages of growth as the egg evolves from birth to the glorious moment when the butterfly takes wing. Through the personalized adventure and Ryder's strong sensory imagery, readers become the tiny creature, growing and changing. As a wonderful postscript, Ryder gives directions for adapting a part of a garden to attract butterflies. The book is packed with good information presented in an imaginative way. Cherry's illustrations span the full page, using boxes in sequence to magnify details or follow action. Another special feature of her lush watercolors is the many small creatures hidden among the plant life, inviting readers to sharpen their powers of observation. As it opens children's eyes to one of the wonders of nature, this book is sure to delight as well as teach.
Appraisal - Margaret Bush
The book is pretty, with broad expanses of lush greenery and flowers. Against the larger scenes Lynne Cherry makes effective use of small framed insets, sometimes in a series, to highlight the stages of growth and change. Some of the animals, as well as the boy and girl at the book's beginning, are overly cute in greeting-card style, but she provides pleasing scenes with plenty tosee. . . . Though the tone is a bit precious at times, some teachers will like the fanciful scheme for initiating discussion, and the book is an attractiveintroduction to the butterfly life cycle. |
