Oof! Ouch! Whoa! Ow! "I do not like the dark," whispers a teensy caterpillar with all sixteen of his legs trembling. Bonk! Bonk! Boink! Boink! "I wish I were a lightning bug," he whispers to himself.

Tired, hungry and still very much in the dark, the caterpillar curls up as tight as he can while a single tear slips down his cheek. Can Archie's new friends help him overcome his fear of the dark?
