- Abstract
- en_US Though the seller incorrectly listed this book as written by Aesop, it offers the stuff of fable. Lamb and butterfly meet in a meadow, and the lamb has incessant questions for the fluttering butterfly. Through their interaction, and particularly through the intervention of a rainstorm, the lamb learns that butterflies cannot live the way lambs do. Earlier, when the butterfly fluttered away, the lamb ran after it to ask more questions. When the butterfly flies south to stay warm in the winter, the lamb does not run after him any more. She never asked a Butterfly to join a flock of sheep again. One recognizes Carle's bright and lively work right away. Maybe his best picture here is of the wet, bedraggled butterfly on the lamb's back
