The Little Caterpillar's Adventure, by Sofia
Once upon a time there were 84 little eggs laying on the petal of a soft red rose in a spring field. Suddenly all the eggs popped out except for one that was left behind.
Three days later that little left out egg went POP! and out came a beautiful and lonely caterpillar. The little caterpillar found herself alone and hungry. Then she spotted a tree full of bright green leaves. Then she climbed and climbed until she heard something.
"Hey you" said the voice. The little caterpillar fell in shock. Then the voice stopped and the caterpillar continued her journey for search of food.
After a few feet of crawling she found just the right tree and said, "This is where I'll spin my cocoon." Then she saw her kind approaching her, it was her friends and family. She hugged all of them and suddenly without spinning a cocoon, she turned into a butterfly.
Written by Isabella
On a bright, sunny day, a little caterpillar crawled out of her egg. "Oh," she thought. "What a wonderful world this is!" she said as she gazed at the mountains.
The caterpillar was hungry. "Oh look!" she thought. "There is a yummy leaf to eat!" So she crawled out of the flower and started chewing on the leaf.
"Hey," said a nearby voice, "Don't touch my leaf!" The caterpillar jumped in surprise. "Me?" asked the caterpillar. "Yes you!" said the voice. The caterpillar looked down and there was a little ladybug grazing on the leaf that he was chewing on.
"But you're so...tiny." "Yeah well you're a moth get used to it, 'cause around here only beauty matters. You're lucky to find a molded scrap of a leaf."
The caterpillar liked the name, Lucky, and that's what she wanted to name herself. In a few years she emerged from her cocoon to a prettier looking moth. And everyone started respecting her.
A few days later she saw a little caterpillar like herself and remembered what it felt like. So she sat out and made a difference. And from then on every bug was treated with what is on the inside, not on the outside.
I am a Butterfly! by Sebastian
Chris wanted to be like everybody else. Every day, Chris the caterpillar would wake up from his leafy bed and see the bugs, birds and butterflies flying high in the air.
The next day, Chris saw his friend, Ron, gazing up at the birds. He went to ask Ron a question. He said, "Do you think we will ever be butterflies?"
Yes," answered Ron. "One day we will wake up from a deep and long sleep and we will be butterflies!"
Chris still dreamed of the day that he would become a butterfly. One day he got his wish. He curled up on a branch and became a cocoon. One day he woke up from a big sleep but he was trapped. Then he gave a big push and he fell out of the cocoon and landed on the ground with a thump. He noticed something different. He was a butterfly!

The Adventure of Supercaterpillar by Abraham
One day a caterpillar was born in 1944 when World War II was going on. The caterpillar thought he wanted to leave the war. He had an idea to make a cape out of a leaf.
It was a lot of work, so he went to sleep. He thought about how he was born. About when he was born when he was an egg. Now he's a caterpillar. He can't wait to be a butterfly.
Then he got up and found a sword that was mini. Then he thought it was time to leave this war. So he packed his stuff. Also the cape he had made. Then he got almost hit by a Nazi trooper. So he took his sword out and hit him back.
He landed in Europe safely. Also he turned into a butterfly. Also he turned into a caterpillar artist and now is in the Caterpillar Hall of Fame.
