Overview
With this easy-to-read book, children will discover the facts behind the seemingly magical conversions that transform a wooly caterpillar into a graceful butterfly and a swimming tadpole into a leaping frog. Far from being supernatural, these changes involve a fascinating natural process, and this book presents a well-illustrated look at how some baby animals develop from a larval stage into creatures that bear no resemblance to their former selves. The authors, seasoned writers of science books for children, examine the metamorphosis of moths, honeybees, dragonflies, starfish, and eels. Their imaginative analogies, phrased in simple language, offer young readers a memorable introduction to a fundamental natural process. Unabridged republication of the edition originally published by Atheneum Press, New York, 1971. Glossary.
