Friends, Aaliyah and Avir, notice a caterpillar's cocoon while playing at recess. The children relate the journey a caterpillar takes to become a butterfly to the unique backgrounds of their families. This slice-of-life story touches on the unique struggles of immigrant parents in the United States and the complex experience of African-Americans. Children of the Butterflies highlights the importance of exposure to and conversation with people different from us. It is through these kinds of experiences that children will learn to appreciate the similarities and differences that we all bring to life.
