The Flying Worm is the first book in the Penelope Pond series and teaches young children concepts and words through beautifully illustrated stories.Papilio thinks he is a worm, but he is really a caterpillar. He begins his journey into metamorphosis with a warm blanket named Pupa. Papilio can trust the warm blanket when he’s sleeping, yet when he wakes up he feels very different. When he arrives at Penelope’s Pond, he is frightened when he sees his reflection, but his Wonderful Creator helps him to realize that He was right beside him all along. The Flying Worm teaches children scientific names, new vocabulary words, and introduces a Wonderful Creator. It is unique, appealing, and creates interest for young readers.
