Catie, Imani, and Bella are best friends who meet every day at their special Meeting Tree and dream of becoming butterflies together. But when Catie's friends begin to change before she does, she feels lonely, worried, and unsure of her place. As she watches her friends grow wings, Catie must learn that everyone grows at their own pace - and that true friendship never fades.
Through gentle storytelling and vibrant illustrations, this friendship story for kids introduces important social-emotional learning themes, such as jealousy, patience, reassurance, and self-confidence.
