"There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it's going to be a butterfly."
R. Buckminster Fuller
It' s a sweet and educational story about the monarch butterfly migration from Canada to Mexico which was told from the perspective of an observant turtle. This is a excellent book with beautiful illustrations teaching about migration and the life cycle of a monarch butterfly. After reading this book, kids are able to learn about how a monarch breaks out of her shell, spreads wings, flies away and migrates all the way in North America.
How to spend one's life? Like a monarch who hurries through or like a turtle who takes his time? If you want a non-fiction book that is not boring and presents facts to children in a engaging way this is a great book!
