Bob
was a caterpillar. Otto was a worm. Together, they were
good friends who enjoyed digging in the ground, playing
in the grass, and eating leaves that fell from the old
tree. Would they always be friends or would changes
in their lives send them in different directions? Would
they always be important to each other?
Bob
and Otto follows the cycles of their lives
to show the interdependence of different creatures.
In the end, the readers learn a lot about nature and
something important about friends.
