What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book deals with the 'predator-prey' dynamic of the natural world in a very secular and metaphorical way. The threat of the caterpillar being eaten is real but handled with humor and a hopeful resolution where everyone's needs are met through cooperation.
