NOTES

"Two sisters discover a woolly bear caterpillar. One day, a curious friend shows up in Edie and Lou's vegetable garden. Woolly Bear doesn't say much, but she's just the quiet friend the sisters need: a tiny adventurer who quickly becomes part of the family. They build her a cozy home, feed her tiny thyme leaves, and sing her all the songs they know. Woolly Bear is the last thing they think of at bedtime, and the first thing they think of in the morning. Then the seasons begin to change: leaves fall first, then snow. And one day, Woolly Bear disappears. Dad jokes that maybe instead of snoozing under a rock, she hitched a ride to a warmer place, like Costa Rico. The girls are glum, but it's not long before they're off on their next adventure - and they know that Woolly Bear is doing the same. She has become an Isabella Tiger Moth! A story that explores themes of outdoor discovery and playful curiosity, offering a welcome reminder that beauty often surfaces in small, slow moments, and that change persists even when the world seems still."--
