About This Item
From the front flap of the d.j.: "Monarch butterflies are wonders. Emerging from their eggs as comma-size caterpillars, the hungry larvae will grow three thousand times heavier in a matter of weeks. They transform into hanging chrysalises and then to golden adults that can fly 2,500 miles across North America. Flower-tasting feet and ancient migration routes help explain why these butterflies have captured attention from the Hudson Bay to the Gulf of Mexico. Celebrated poet Avis Harley looks at the science, art, and history that surround monarchs, capturing in verse our perennial questions about these winged beauties."
A lovely Inscription from the author on the front endpaper: "Especially for ? and ? A butterfly wish for you: "May the winds be gentle in your life, too." With love from Avis Harley
