Once upon a time, a caterpillar named Harry had a wish to turn
into a butterfly. He ate and ate, thinking that would turn him into a
butterfly. He tried all the ways in his head but none of them worked. Over the
days Harry started to get sad, and before he knew it, he was crying!
One day Harry was trying to roll up on a branch. One minute he
was rolling up, the second he could not speak! Harry started to think. After a
while, he figured out he had become a cocoon! After about three weeks (which
felt like a long time to him), a wing popped up from the cocoon!
After his whole body was out of the cocoon, he started looking
for a family. But his wings were so wet he could not fly! After a couple of
hours he felt better and went searching for a family. Near the coast, he found
one, and introduced himself to them. The family loved Harry’s introduction, and
adopted him. They started looking for a school for Harry so he can learn and
become more useful. A popular school for butterflies The Gesturing Deferred had
a spot open, so they enrolled Harry.
At first Harry was really shy, and this was a big problem for
his family. He could not make any friends. At recess, Harry would sit on the
concrete with nothing to play with and nobody to play with. Often Harry would
flutter around. The teachers tried to find somebody for Harry to play with. But
whoever they asked, Harry would say he did not want to play with them. Summer
Vacation rolled in. Harry was still shy. Nobody could do anything about it.
Until, Harry went to a lake. When Harry saw his reflection, he
was amazed to see his wish had finally come true - he was a butterfly! He
regretted that he was shy because he always thought he looked scary!
Harry isn't shy anymore, he is learning at school really fast,
and he has many friends! Way to go Harry!
