In the first of two stories on this audio CD, Clovis and his friends help the Cigales twins, Chicot and Coteau, stage a summer concert on the bayou despite the ever-present threat of the voracious M'sieu Blue Jay. Children will learn ecology as well as French in this adventure. In the second story, Bertile Butterfly has a baby, and Clovis and his friends are surprised to see that the baby does not look like a butterfly, but like a worm instead. As they watch the baby grow, they discover the growth stages of a caterpillar. The cocoon is blown off of a vine during a storm and is saved by the ingenious Clovis. The caterpillar finally emerges as Petit Papillon (the Little Butterfly). The two stories are narrated in both English and French.
