This is Lolo. Lolo was a very little, bright green caterpillar. Lolo loved to munch, munch, munch on big, juicy leaves.

One sunny afternoon, Lolo felt very sleepy. “Where can I rest?” Lolo wondered. Lolo wanted a soft, safe place to nap.

Lolo wriggled and wiggled until Lolo found a very special spot. It was near a big, gentle friend who sat very still and calm.

This kind friend was Lord Ganesh, the one with the big elephant head. Lord Ganesh looked warm and welcoming, holding a delicious sweet.

Lolo looked up at Lord Ganesh’s big, round tummy. Lolo thought, “That looks like the softest pillow!” Lolo gently rubbed the tummy, ‘Pffffft,’ just once.

Suddenly, a wonderful tiny sparkle glowed all around Lolo! It was warm, bright magic that felt like a soft, sweet hug.

The glow faded, and what appeared was not Lolo the butterfly flew out into the big, wide world. Wherever Lolo went, Lolo spread love and compassion, like little sprinkles of fairy dust.

Lolo the caterpillar! It was Lolo the beautiful butterfly! Lolo had rainbow wings!

Lolo’s new wings felt light and strong. Lolo fluttered up and gave Lord Ganesh a happy wink. “Thank you for the kindness!”

Lolo the butterfly flew out into the big, wide world. Wherever Lolo went, Lolo spread love and compassion, like little sprinkles of fairy dust.

Lolo waved wings at the buzzing bees and smiled at the sleepy ladybugs. Everyone felt happy because Lolo shared gentle, soft love with the world!
