Author Description

Tambi hatches from the smallest caterpillar egg. He is smaller and slower than the other caterpillars, and has none of their bright colors or talents. In everything the caterpillars do, Tambi is always last. He is the last to learn to climb, the last to find leaves to eat, and the last to become a chrysalis. But when he finally emerges from his chrysalis, the result is an exhilarating surprise. Children will be thrilled to discover Tambi's triumph.
