Cameron the Caterpillar and Oscar the Octopus

By Lauren Hadley Kermode

The second addition to Lauren Hadley Kermode's wonderful Flip Book series includes two lively tales that reveal the importance of self-acceptance and of appreciating others for their unique gifts as well.

In Cameron the Caterpillar, young readers meet a caterpillar who is happy being who he is-unlike his caterpillar friends, who dream of being a dog, a cat, a horse ... anything but a lowly caterpillar Eventually, they all discover that loving yourself is the surest path to happiness and having friends who truly appreciate you makes things even better.

Oscar the Octopus follows the underwater adventures of Oscar, a gentle eight-legged soul whose strange looks drive many other sea creatures away. Oscar finally finds someone whose loving and accepting nature matches his own, and together they build bonds of friendship and understanding that run as deep as the ocean itself.
