Where Do Butterflies Come From?Where Do Butterflies Come From?
Ever wonder where a butterfly comes from? It comes from a chrysalis (KRIS-uh-liss) which is also called a pupa. A chrysalis looks like a tiny leathery pouch. You can find one underneath some leaves in the summer.
Some animals don't change much as they grow up. Think about it: someone your age looks a lot like a grown-up. Grown-ups have more wrinkles and gray hair. But they still have two arms, two legs and one head—just like you.
We're going to meet an animal that's very different—the butterfly. Butterflies go through four life stages, and they look very different at each stage.
