Summary

• This is a story of a yellow butterfly that a young kid named Sonu, who first noticed in his garden. He wanted to capture the gorgeous yellow butterfly as soon as he saw it.
•  He got closer to catching the butterfly, but it fluttered away from the garden and into the pond. 
• The butterfly fluttered away as he dove into the water. The butterfly flew faster the more he attempted to catch it.

• However, after a while, he could no longer see the butterfly. He searched around and discovered the butterfly trapped in the spider's web. 
• A hungry small black spider had trapped the butterfly in the centre of the web. When Sonu noticed it, he dashed towards the web to free the butterfly.
