This book is a creative non-fiction picture book based upon a true event that happened with my children when they were very young and inquisitive. The story is a great way for both parents and teachers to expose children to a source of valuable scientific information.

The use of this book in the study of the life cycle of the Luna Moth can be an integral part of the school's STEM curriculum. The questions you might ask are: Have you ever seen a real caterpillar? Not one in a jar or in a book, but a real caterpillar on a leaf? Well, Jami has.

She plucked the caterpillar and the leaf it was on and ran into the house shouting, "Hey Mom. Look what I found.

Can I keep it. " What do you think happened next? Did her mother let her keep it? What happened to the caterpillar as she fed it and it grew? Do you know how a caterpillar turns into a moth or butterfly? Follow Jami and her sisters on their adventure as they find more caterpillars and discover their secret to becoming Luna Moths.

Children will learn: The Life Cycle of the Luna Moth Will be able to identify the parts of the moth and the caterpillar. Describe how a caterpillar turns into a moth (the metamorphism process) Understand the reproduction (lays over 100 eggs) and life span of the Luna Moth.
