How a Butterfly Grows

A butterfly is an insect.

The female butterfly grows eggs in her body so she finds a leaf or a stem of a plant.

When she finds a plant she puts sticky glue and attatches it on the plant.

A few weeks later the egg hatchers and becomes a caterpillar.

It starts to eat the leaf.

When it is older its old skin is too small so it grows a new skin underneath the old skin.

Six weeks later the caterpillar spins a cocoon.

After that it comes out as a butterfly with its new wings.

Butterflies are fabulous insects.

If I were the Prime Minister I would be very kind and sign letters.Another thing I would do is make speeches in front of people.
I bet that it is hard work being Prime Minister.
