Rocket is delighted when a butterfly lands on his nose! But when the butterfly flies off into the woods, is Rocket brave enough to follow?

This is a short and sweet story with a slight moral about facing your fears (not heavy handed at all). It is perfect for beginning readers to read to themselves or with some help from an adult, depending on their skill on level. Younger preschool children with shorter attention spans might also enjoy hearing this as a read-aloud.

The gentle, sparse illustrations fit the text well. ( )
