The Dream Tree by Stephen Cosgrove, illustrated by Robin James, A Serendipity Book, Price/Stern/Sloan, Los Angeles, 1982.
Serendipity books seem to all be written and illustrated by the same people. There are about 40 such books. Most end with a moral lesson. this one does not. However it does tell of a caterpillar who becomes a butterfly. It also explains that sometimes you can't explain how something is, you just have to do it. Patty Caterpillar wishes a butterfly would tell her what it is like to be a butterfly; but all the butterflies just fly off, "Someday you'll know." He promises himself to come back and tell the caterpillars what it is like, but somethings are easier promised than done.
I like the artwork. Robin James uses nice colors.
