“At Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory, we offer a weekday Words & Wings Storytime in the winter for young children and their families. This story has become one of our favourites, and we include it with the theme/topic of “walking gently” and respecting all life around us, even the small lives.

We do a small activity where they walk around the room strewn with plastic bugs and practice stepping over them when they encounter one. The book usually leads to a bit of fun discussion and leaves the parents with something to think about and follow up with their children afterwards at home.” —Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory
