Beetle and Caterpillar are best friends. Every day, they sit together on a big rock, sharing a picnic and looking out over the forest. But one day, Caterpillar goes missing and, try as he might, Beetle cannot find her. Just as he is about to give up hope,
a very friendly (and rather familiar) butterfly appears out of nowhere. Can it be his friend? She might look different, but she is still just the same, and they are together again at last.
