Review

This is a lift-the-flap book of the life cycle of the monarch butterfly. The striking black and white prints with several flaps per page to show the changes from egg to caterpillar to chrysalis to beautiful orange monarchs are the only touches of color making for a dramatic transition. A single word on each page is all that is necessary for budding scientist to follow the never ending cycle of life. Lovely for sharing or one on one.

Overall Book Score: good
