I am a Butterfly I am an egg at first. I turned into a caterpillar. I eat and eat and eat. I grew very fat. I started to shed my skin, gross! Then I went into a pupa. I was in there for a long time… I came out soon after that! I was a butterfly! I was black, yellow, and orange. Ahhhh! What if I am ugly? I am not ugly. Everyone would be staring at me if I was ugly. My wings are crumpled for a few days. After a couple of weeks, my wings were straight. The end.

The Three Butterflies Once upon a time, there were three butterflies. And they saw nectar. But there was a big, big, grasshopper! The butterfly flew halfway and the grasshopper hopped out and said, "I'm going to eat you!" "Don't eat me," said the little butterfly, "Wait until my bigger brother comes." The medium butterfly came. And the grasshopper hopped out and said, "I'm going to eat you!" "Wait until my bigger brother comes," said the medium butterfly. Then came the biggest butterfly. Then the grasshopper hopped out and said, "I'm going to eat you!" The biggest butterfly and the grasshopper got into a fight. Then the butterfly won and they ate and ate nectar. And no one saw the grasshopper ever again. The end. Michael, First Grade, Chicago, IL Butterflies Flutter, do they not? Monarchs, moths, any type God made them beautiful Just like you.
