The Caterpillar Cowboy
Russ Lanier
Little caterpillar lives in an apple tree. And every day he watches the cowboys ride by with their cattle. He really, really wants to be a cowboy. So he asks owl how to become a cowboy. Owl explains how someday caterpillar will be able to soar just as if he was riding a horse. But when caterpillar gets the experience to be a cowboy, he changes his mind and decides that he is perfectly content being a caterpillar.
Children will love the bright colorful illustrations that fill every page. The story is told from the caterpillar's point of view and hints at what he will become. The lesson of accepting who you are and being content in situations is told in the plot. The use of the Bible verse gives this book a Christian feel, but will appeal to all audiences.
I received this book free of charge from Book Club Network in exchange for my honest review.
