This book is about a teeny-tiny creepy-crawly bug. She is a caterpillar who only knows one thing, she's gotta go to Mexico! She meets some other bugs along the way who tell her she'll never make it to Mexico!

This is a really cute book about the monarch butterfly's migration journey to Mexico! It is also a good way to teach kids about perseverance! I also though the illustrations were adorable!

Gotta Go! Gotta Go! is a charming children's book following a little caterpillar who doesn't know much, just that she has to go, and she has to go to Mexico! Through the book the caterpillar encounters many animals who do not believe she can do it, but she does not give up. Eventually turning into a Monarch butterfly she reaches Mexico, where she meets other Monarch butterflies. This book is a great story to explain the concept of metamorphosis as well as migration.

Teaching Ideas: metamorphosis, and migration, as well as never giving up ( )

decent book, not quite right for storytime though

Although she does not know why or how, a small creepy-crawly bug is certain that she must make her way to Mexico. ( )
