"Full of witty banter...a buzzworthy choice." -- Kirkus Reviews

How did YOU collect SO MUCH POLLEN?

I have sticky hairs EVERYWHERE!

Oh! I'm not sticky enough.

It's okay. You don't need to collect as much pollen as a bee. Just be a butterfly.

Right. You're saying I need to be STICKIER.

This hilarious final instalment in Ross Burach's Very Impatient Caterpillar series playfully encourages readers to love who they are, while also illuminating the importance of pollinators to our ecosystem.
