Birdie has a secret. She is not just an ordinary girl. She is also…Crafty Cat! In this book, Birdie’s school class is learning about butterflies and they are going to put on a play all about what they have learned. Everyone in the class wants to be the butterfly, especially ornery Anya. When the day of the play approaches, Anya breaks her costume and Crafty Cat is the only one who can fix it. Will Birdie put aside her differences with Anya and help? The story here is cute and has a small message. Also, in the back of the book are craft lessons.
