Book Synopsis
George is happy to be a caterpillar, traveling across stems and branches, munching on leaves to his heart's content. Luckily for George, while in his chrysalis, a wise praying mantis helps George realize he is destined to be a butterfly, the most beautiful creature in the world.
The original story of George was written over 30 years ago and stolen. Max innocently met with an artist to discuss illustrating the book. He was so excited to get the book completed as quickly as possible that he handed his hand-written copy of the book to the artist. She disappeared off the face of the earth. Max had to climb into a chrysalis many times before he finally found his wings and had the realization that he could rewrite the story which is what you have in your hands today.
