Rezensionen
This story was sweet, and i enjoyed the bilingualism throughout. This would pair well with science life cyclelesson, or studying caterpillars, butterflies, etc.
Story of a caterpillar that wishes to become butterfly so he can fly to Mexico, but instead he turns into a moth. Even though Oscar is a moth he still makes the best with what life gave him. He made lemonade!
Oscar is a caterpillar who can't wait to fly to Mexico like one of his butterfly friends. He starts learning Spanish, but one day he wakes up and finds he has turned into a moth instead. He decides to think like a butterfly instead of a moth, and fly to Mexico instead of staying near his porchlight and eating socks. The dialogue seems forced, which makes this book seem limited to young children.
