Let's go see what it is.

Hi, Princess Pea.

Whyatt, look what I found!

There's a caterpillar inside there!

Whoa.

So, does that mean when the caterpillar comes out...

It'll be a butterfly! Isn't it splendid?!

I just can't wait to see the butterfly!

When is it going to come out?

I don't know.

Maybe... now?

How 'bout now?

Split pea. Why is it taking so long

Let's read!

Why Writer... highlight!

Read with me!

Hiya! I'm Tilden the Caterpillar.

Oh yeah, oh yeah, I'll be a butterfly. Oh yeah!

I want to turn into a butterfly now!

But, it's not happening!

So. Frustrated. Rrrrrrr!!

And that Super Readers, is why we are in this e-book!

Tilden and Princess Pea both want something to happen

right now - but, it won't!

We need to find Tilden the Caterpillar right away!

I know! We can take this leaf to find him!

To Tilden the Caterpillar!

[OVERLAPPING] Wheeee! Wahoo! Yay!!

Hi, Tilden the Caterpillar!

Super Readers!

You're just in time to see me turn into a butterfly!

Stand back, here I go!

Rrrr, grrrr...

Butterfly....here I come!...

<grunting>

Ta-daaaa!

I'm... a... butterfly!!

Did I do it?

Not yet, Tilden.

Really?! But, I want to turn into a butterfly now!

[Tilden's tummy rumbles]

Or - heh-heh - maybe after lunch.

Did you hear my tummy, Super Readers?

I'm starving!

But, there's nothing around here for me to eat!

What will I do?

Alpha Pig... to the rescue!

With my Amazing Alphabet Tools I can make

a nice green leaf for Tilden to eat!

Abc, sing with me!

Wxy and z. Sing with me.

Amazing alphabet singing!

The first letter in the word 'leaf' is 'l'.

Where's the letter 'l'?

KIDS: There!

There it is!

Next we need to find the letter 'e'.

Where's the 'e'?

KIDS: There!

There's the 'e'!

Now, we need the letter 'a'. Where's the 'a'?

KIDS: There!

There's the 'a'!

Now, for the last letter, we need an 'f'.

Where is that 'f'?

KIDS: There!

There's the 'f'!

L-E-A-F. Leaf!

[gasp!]

Lickety Letters!

We found the letters in the word LEAF

and found a leaf for Tilden.

Let's give ourselves a big thumbs up!

<munching sounds>

Mmm. Finished!

Come on, Super Readers.

All that eating made me want to scooch around.

Let's go!

Don't forget to look for Super Letters.

[SUPER LETTERS TWINKLE]

You see Super Letters? Which ones are they?

KIDS: A! N! P!

A, N, and P.

Let's put them in our Super Duper...

KIDS: Computer!

[COMPUTER SOUNDS]

Six more Super Letters and then

we'll get our Super Story Answer!

Super job, Super Readers!

[MUNCHING SOUNDS]

Ruff! Tilden, you look... bigger!

[gasp]

Maybe that means I'm changing into a butterfly right now!

Here I go!

Rrrr... ooof... gaaaa...

This is taking forever.

I want to be a butterfly now.

Now, now, now, now -

Ooof! Ow.

Hey. What is this thing?

Let's read the sign.

Be careful of the chrysalis.

Okay, I'll be careful.

But, what is a chrysalis?

Woofster... to the rescue!

With my doggie dictionary I can tell you

what any word means!

Chrysalis.

A hard covering where a caterpillar

can grow into a butterfly inside.

Chrysalis.

Now we know what it means.

Woof-de-doo! Give your tail a wag!

Mmmmmm!

That's what I saw in my garden!

A chrysalis!

Tilden! That's it!

You need to make your own chrysalis,

so you can turn into a butterfly!

But, where can I make one?

♪♪

Cue the sparkles! Cue the music!

Princess Presto to the rescue!

With my magic spelling wand I can spell the word BRANCH

and make a place for Tilden to make his chrysalis.

Ready?

Spell BRANCH with me!

What letter makes the sound /b/?

KIDS: 'B'!

'B'! Wands up!

Write a lowercase 'b' with me!

Now, what letter makes the sound /r/?

KIDS: 'R'!

'R'! Write a lowercase 'r' with me!

The next letter makes the sound /a/.

What letter makes the /a/ sound? It's a vowel.

KIDS: 'A'!

An 'a'! Let's write a lowercase 'a'.

The next letter makes the sound /n/.

What letter makes the /n/ sound?

KIDS: 'N'!

'N'! Let's write a lowercase 'n'!

The last two letters make the sound /ch/.

What letters make the sound /ch/

when they're together?

KIDS: 'C', 'H'!

'C', and 'H'!

Let's write a lowercase 'c' and a lowercase 'h.'

B-R-A-N-C-H.

Branch. Presto!

Spectacular spelling!

We spelled the word BRANCH,

and now Tilden has a place to make his chrysalis!

Let's take a bow.

Terrific! Here I go...

building a chrysalis and turning into a butterfly...

Hiiiiya!

[IMPRESSED CHATTER]

Oh. My. Peas!

[SUPER LETTERS TWINKLE]

You see Super Letters? Which ones?

KIDS: B! T! I! E!

Oh yeah. B, T, I, E.

Now we need to put them into our Super Duper...

KIDS: Computer!

Two more Super Letters...

And then we'll get our Super Story Answer!

Great letter-catching, Super Readers!

Whoa Super Readers, this chrysalis is amazing!

You've gotta check it out!

Okay, here we come!

[OVERLAPPING] Ooooh, wow. Neato! Cool. So cozy.

Okay, now that I made my chrysalis,

I'm totally going to turn into a butterfly,

like right now.

Ready.... go!

Ta-da!

Oh pa-lease tell me I'm a butterfly now.

Please?

What?! I'm not a butterfly yet?

But, I made a chrysalis and everything!

What am I supposed to do now?

Awr. Let's look at your story!

So, Super Readers, what does my story say?

What do I have to do to turn into a butterfly?

In order to turn into a butterfly, Tilden must...

What happened to the last word?

Uh oh.

I'll never know what happens inside my chrysalis now.

What can I do?

Super Why... to the rescue!

With the power to read,

I can change this story and save the day!

Why Writer... tap!

Super Readers,

what do you think Tilden needs to do next

in order to turn into a butterfly?

'Bark', 'meow', or 'wait'?

Hm. Let's try, 'wait'. Tap!

Tap! Let's read our new sentence.

In order to turn into a butterfly,

Tilden must wait.

I have to wait?

Okay, I can do that.

Hmmm-mmm-hmm-hmm-hmmm.

It's hard to wait!

I know! Waiting is hard for me, too.

But, what if we sing a song while we wait?

I guess that might help.

♪ Waiting can be hard ♪

♪ Waiting can be tough. ♪

♪ But you'll be glad you waited ♪

♪ 'cuz good things - take time! ♪

Super Readers! I think it's time for me to come out now!

I think - I think, I'm a butterfly!

Oooo, come out, Tilden! We want to see you!

All right, on the count of three, here I come.

Onetwothree!

Sorry, I'm just really excited.

One...

two...

three!

Ruff!

[OVERLAPPING] Wow! Oh my peas! Wonderific!

Wheeeeee!!!!!!

Did the word 'wait' help Tilden know what to do?

KIDS: Yes!

Yes! Super job, Super Readers!

We changed the story and figured out

that Tilden needed to wait -

so he could finish turning into a butterfly!

You're a butterfly!

Oh yeah!

You look beauuuuuuutiful.

Aw, thanks. It took a loooooooong time

for me to turn into a butterfly.

But, it was worth the wait!

[SUPER LETTERS TWINKLE]

You see our last Super Letters? Which ones?

KIDS: T, E!

T, E! Oh yeah!

Let's put them in our Super Duper...

KIDS: Computer!

We found all of our Super Letters!

Now we can get our Super Story Answer!

Thank you, Super Readers! I'll never forget you!

You're welcome Tilden! Bye!

Whyflyers! Back to the Book Club!

♪ We found the Super Story answer, with Super Why! ♪

Super Duper Computer,

give us our Super Story Answer!

Read the letters with me!

B-E

P-A-T-

I-E-

N-T.

Be patient.

The Super Story Answer is 'be patient'.

But, why?

Because, Tilden had to be patient and wait until

it was time for him to finish changing into a butterfly.

So my question is:

What should I do if I want the butterfly

in my garden to come out now?

And your answer is:

ALL: Be patient!

Ruff! Ruff!

I guess I'll have to be patient

and wait until the butterfly is ready.

But, we can still check, right?

Right! Come on!

There's the chrysalis! But no butterfly yet.

<Sigh!>

Oh! Yeah. I need to be patient.

♪ Waiting can be tough. ♪

Oooo!!

...'cuz good things - take time!

It's... the butterfly!

Wo-o-o-o-w!

Splendid!

I just had to be patient... and wait.

And now the butterfly is here!

Awr?
