A caterpillar is deemed “beautiful,” and he sets out to discover what “beautiful” means. On and on he travels, asking every creature he meets, and each shares his own ideas of what “beautiful” is. But none of the definitions satisfy. Finally the caterpillar and the other creatures he meets experience the night sky and all can finally agree on the meaning of the word.
This book is...well, beautiful...in every way...text and illustrations...You will agree, I think. Even the argumentative blackbird would agree on this.
