Butterflies
Martin is invited to recite a poem in Spanish for the annual "Fiesta de la Sol" celebration downtown. Martin is nervous and learns that the fluttery feeling in his belly is called 'having butterflies'. The night before the festival, Daddy helps Martin see his nervousness a little differently by telling him a story about the long journey Monarch butterflies take every year - all the way to Mexico.
