This short animation begins in a drab, glum looking setting and is transformed as the book comes to life.
Teaching Ideas
You can use this in class a writing stimulus for a story about a book that came to life. Lots of description to start with describing the boring, grey room, before the book opens and the room is transformed by the butterflies.
This can be adapted by the children. Other animals could come out of the book - what would happen if lions and tigers came out of the book into the classroom? What would happen if fish came out? - have to scoop them up quickly and put them into a tank, etc.
The possibilities are endless.
