Tadpole loves his rainbow friend, the caterpillar, and she tells him she loves everything about him. ‘Promise that you will never change, ‘ she says. But as the seasons pass and he matures, his legs grow, and then his arms – and what happens to his beautiful rainbow friend? As he sits on his lily pad, digesting a butterfly, Tadpole little realises that now he will never know!
Follow the predictable changes of a tadpole and a caterpillar to their natural conclusion in this award winning picture book.
