Hermie, a Common Caterpillar by Max Lucado

This is a beautiful story about a caterpillar, Hermie, who just feels like he has nothing that makes him stand out from the crowd.  He feels like he's just common, like he has nothing special.  Whenever he was feeling especially "common", he would hear God telling him that God loved him just the way he was and that God wasn't finished with him yet (a message we all need to hear, yes?).  Well, one day Hermie finds out what God meant when he said he wasn't finished with him yet.  It was beyond his wildest dreams.  This book is a good reminder to children and parents that just because we don't always feel like we have anything special to offer the world, that God isn't finished with us yet and we just need to be faithful and patient.
