Caterpillar and Bean: A First Science Storybook

Caterpillar and Bean follows the growth of a bean and a caterpillar while showing how plants and insects interact. A small, hard, wrinkled brown object lodged in the ground begins the book’s attention to change and growth. The stages of development for both the bean and the caterpillar are explained through the text, with colorful mixed-media illustrations accompanying the account of these two living things.
