Once upon a time, there was a little caterpillar named Carl. Carl loved to eat, and he ate everything he could find. He ate leaves, flowers, and even little sticks. Every day, he ate more and more.
Carl was very happy with all the food he ate. He felt full and satisfied, but one day, something strange started happening. He felt bigger and bigger. His body started stretching, and he had to stop eating to rest.
The next day, Carl felt even bigger, and he realized that he had eaten too much. He felt uncomfortable, and he couldn’t move very well. His friends, the other caterpillars, tried to help him, but he was just too big and heavy.
Days passed, and Carl got bigger and bigger. He couldn’t move at all anymore, and he started to worry that he would never be able to move again. His friends told him that he would be okay, and they kept him company.
One day, something amazing happened. Carl’s body started to change. He felt a strange sensation, and then he started to spin a cocoon around himself. Inside the cocoon, he felt safe and warm.
Weeks passed, and Carl was finally ready to emerge from his cocoon. His friends watched in amazement as he emerged as a beautiful butterfly. He had wings that were colourful and bright, and he could fly. He was no longer the little caterpillar who ate too much, he was a beautiful butterfly.
Carl learned that sometimes, too much of a good thing can be bad for you. But he also learned that change can be a beautiful thing and that sometimes, you have to go through difficult times to become the best version of yourself.
