A rabbit family decides to visit Butterfly Place to see the monarchs. They meet Bert, the Butterfly Man at the Milkweed Meadow. Bert takes Mom and Dad, Minna and Pip through the stages of the monarch butterfly: the eggs, caterpillar, pupa, and adult.
A very complete description of the stages, the terms, and simple but colorful illustrations meet the qualifications for an excellent science lesson.
End pages include a plan for making a butterfly magnet and planting a butterfly garden. The charming characters will enhance the student's understanding of the beautiful monarch butterfly.
