Caterpillars Don't Check Email

By Calee M. Lee

Embark on a Whimsical Journey with "Caterpillars Don't Check Email" In the enchanting world of "Caterpillars Don't Check Email," young readers are invited to explore the simple joys and wonders of nature through the eyes of a curious little caterpillar. Authored by Calee M. Lee and vividly illustrated by Jacob Lee, this heartwarming tale is a celebration of discovery, growth, and the beauty of transformation. As our little caterpillar friend crawls along the ground, she encounters a little girl eager to share the marvels of her world. From pine cones and apples to kaleidoscopes and stories, the little girl offers various objects and experiences, hoping to catch the caterpillar's interest. Yet, the caterpillar is on a quest for something more, something true to her nature and dreams. She's not interested in the distractions of daily life, not even in checking emails. Instead, she’s on a profound journey of self-discovery, embracing the activities that caterpillars cherish—climbing, wiggling, weaving, and resting—until she's ready to embrace her destiny as a butterfly.

I thought this book was completely silly. First, the pictures came before the words. Second, the pictures aren't drawings, they are polaroids of a little girl with a puffy thing that sometimes doesn't look like a real caterpillar. Maybe, it's me, but I dont get this book. I wouldn't buy it nor would I show or read it to a child. There are many more interesting and beautifully illustrated books out there. I'm giving it a two star rating for the cute little girl and I guess the effort. Otherwise, it would be a -0.

This is a very cute little book that shows children that humans are very different from animals. The little girl in the story learns that caterpillars can't be concerned with checking email. After all, they have better things to do, such as turning into a beautiful butterfly!
