Loretta finds a Caterpillar egg on a milkweed plant.
It heals and eventually a monarch butterfly emerge.
When it forms a chrysalis, a lizard bites it.
The Caterpillar survives.
Then a wasp, and even a ladybug.
As the Caterpillar grows and molts, Loretta shoos away a bird that wants to eat it.
It eats the leaf, and more leaves.
It hatches.
Mom won\'t let Loretta keep it in the house, so she tapes the leaf back on the plant, and watches over the egg.
She breaks off the leaf and brings it home.
