Just as the inchworm is about to be eaten, he tells the robin, “Don’t eat me! I’m useful.” And with that, the inchworm distracts the hungry bird and demonstrates his usefulness by measuring the robin’s tail. Soon, the inchworm is busy measuring the different parts of many birds. Inch by inch, he finds the length of the toucan’s beak, the flamingo’s neck, and the heron’s leg. When the nightingale demands that the inchworm measure her song, the inchworm is faced with a daunting dilemma. He quickly and cleverly thinks of a solution and then implements it, inch by inch.
