It is through the stages of metamorphosis that Cheryl relates simply for children the interconnectedness of all nature. Transformation requires sleep. Children are shown that they are continually created through sleep and that they continually create from sleep.
With enchanting illustrations and sweet language, the love of creation is conveyed to parents, children, and young readers.
We are all intrinsic to nature, not separate from it. The unconditional fabric of creation that is God transforms. The energy, the mechanisms, the interactions of everything within and without are miracles of God.
The transformations of butterflies, bees, and ladybugs are miracles. Children are miracles.
God continually creates us and continually creates through us.
