From the Back Cover
Based on Proverbs 13:10 Wisdom from Proverbs 13:10 on the importance of taking advice—for ages 8 and under As best friends Fleeya mosquito and Sue butterfly share some punch, a Bungle Bird flies by and eats them for lunch. Finding themselves in the dark belly of the bird, they try hard to think of an escape. Fleeya comes up with several solutions, but Sue—the older of the two—won’t listen. Deciding she must act on her own, Fleeya flies up the bird’s throat and out its mouth when it’s sleeping. Unfortunately, Sue is not so lucky. This clever, rhyming poem—Dr. Seuss style—helps kids understand the importance of listening to friends and wise counselors when they need help. The story is loosely based on the Promiseland® Metamorphosis curriculum.

Sherry's Review
I love these books and author for my daughter. I already had "The Nineteenth of Maquerk" in a board book, and I have been looking for others. Great lessons to start teaching young children.
