(4) K-3 Caterpillar Henri dreams of flying and going on an adventure, and he asks various animals for help while traveling. The plot barely picks up (the biggest obstacle Henri faces is a cocoon) and the prose is a bit ungainly, but the digitally assembled watercolor illustrations succeed in showing overwhelmed Henri's reactions to his imposing surroundings and his joyful transformation into a butterfly.
