How the Insects Got Their Colors

“Let us go to the flower garden, friends,” the butterfly says.

“Oh! There are many flowers!” the butterfly says.“Let us be colorful like them.”

“I am blue,” the cicada says.

“I am red,” the dragonfly says.

“I am yellow,” the bee says.

“I mix the red and the yellow,” the rhinoceros beetle says.“That makes orange. Now I am orange.”

“I mix the blue and the yellow,” the grasshopper says.“That makes green. Now I am green.”

“I mix the red and the blue,” the butterfly says.“That makes purple. Now I am purple.”

“I want to be colorful like my friends,” the caterpillar says.

“It is not hard at all,” the bee says. “We will help."

“Oh! I am seven colors,” the caterpillar says.

“Hooray! We all have beautiful colors.”
