The Butterfly Dance
Suzanne Barton, Suzanne Barton
Caterpillars Dotty and Stripe do everything together. They play, they eat leaves and do all sorts of caterpillar-y things, and then one day, after spinning themselves into snuggly cocoons, they wake up as beautiful butterflies! But soon they realise that, for the first time ever, they look different. Should Dotty only play with butterflies that look like her? And Stripe only play with butterflies that look like him?
A stunningly illustrated story about friendship and and being happy with who you are, from the author/illustrator of Waterstones Children’s Book Prize shortlisted The Dawn Chorus.

It was an intresting book i really thought it was nice, it was really sweet how dotty and stripe did everything together! i'd reccomend it for ages 2+! This is because th words are really simple and can be understood from a young age no matter how it's read!

I liked the butterfly spot. I liked the book because it has nice pictures and they both have fun together like me and my friends. I would recommend this to my friends to read.

I like this book because it shows that even if you are different to someone else, you can still be great friends.

i think this book is brilliant because it's all about nature and tells the story of friendship and that they were Caterpillars who changed into Butterflies. It's brilliant! It's fiction and my favourite characters were Dotty and Stripe the Butterflies/Caterpillars. I would recommend it to people who love nature.

I liked it when the spotty butterfly played with the other spotty butterflies.

I didn't like the middle where the butterflies thought they couldn't play together. The beginning and the end were nice.

I liked this book because it is all about butterflies which is one of my favourite creatures. It is a fiction book, I loved all the butterflies. I would definitely recommend this book.

It had a nice meaning about friendship and how the butterflies realised it doesn’t matter if you are different. I would recommend this to a friend. The drawings were also very pretty.
