Content on its tree, the little bird protects and waters leaves. When a caterpillar comes along to eat the leaves, the bird intervenes and the pair end up on the ground – where a dangerous predator – the fox - wants to make a meal of both of them.
Benshi's review :
Without realising quite what they’re doing, two rival characters wind up supporting each other to face a common threat. The result is a string of funny and surprising adventures involving a caterpillar whose only interest is eating and whose disgusting gas, unbeknownst to the caterpillar, keeps coming to the rescue in the most perilous situations. The drawing is simple, as is the set that features a forest with just the bare necessities, directing more focus on a story that teaches us the importance of living together – a particularly helpful message for any kid who needs to accept the clumsiness of a younger child. Children will have no trouble relating to the situations that arise in this humorous story full of twists and suspense. The tale concludes with the caterpillar fulfilling its potential by turning into a butterfly; and, beyond that, the story shows the value of co-operation and deep friendship between two characters who initially seemed to be at odds with each other in event respect.
