A delightful book, written by a mother/ daughter before the 17-year cicada invasion of 2004. They wrote it to ease the insect anxiety of their 3-year-old granddaughter/daughter when they learned the cicadas were coming. It tells the miraculous life of a special 17-year cicada named Cecily in an endearing way. Beautifully illustrated and fun. Your child will want to find a Cecily of her/his own. A cicada cult classic.
Endearing story about the seventeen year old cicada and transformation. Lots of text with lively, engaging illustrations. Probably more suitable for story time for preschoolers and beyond.
