One Little Monarch

One little monarch butterfly begins her life as a tiny egg on a milkweed leaf - and grows up to take one of the greatest journeys in all of nature. Follow her from striped caterpillar to jade-green chrysalis to bright-winged butterfly, then up into the autumn sky with a great river of orange wings, thousands of miles south to the misty mountain forests where monarchs have always spent the winter. Told in warm, gentle, read-aloud language and woven softly with real monarch science, One Little Monarch is a nature journey little ones will ask for again and again.
A "True Things About Monarch Butterflies" page at the end shares kid-friendly facts - plus a gentle reminder of how children can help real monarchs. Perfect for butterfly lovers, bedtime, and budding young scientists. Ages 4 to 8.
