CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 5.0 based on 1 review)

This is the best!  
I've picked up a lot of children's books about Monarch Butterflies but this is by far the best. The scientific facts are skillfully woven into the story. The words are almost poetic, and the color illustrations are lifelike and breathtaking. The children will learn what flowers Monarchs are attracted to, how they journey to Mexico, what happens when they get there, and how the circle of life continues as the Monarch's offspring makes its way back north.
