This stunning exploration of butterflies from around the world is a
companion to My Book of Birds Geraldo Valério grew up in Brazil,
watching white butterflies visit the vegetable patch behind his
house. As he got older, he learned more about these unique and
beautiful insects, which can be found on every continent except
Antarctica. In this gorgeous album, Geraldo presents his favorite
butterfly species from around the world. Paint and paper collage
illustrations show the butterflies in flight, sipping nectar,
laying eggs and resting among flowers and foliage. The text
provides fascinating information about each species — from
familiar Monarchs and Giant Swallowtails, to dazzling Blue Morphos
and tiny Snowflakes, from beautifully patterned European Peacocks
to endangered Queen Alexandra’s Birdwings. Colorful endpapers,
showing the butterflies as caterpillars and chrysalides, complete
this beautiful book for budding young naturalists. Includes an
introduction, world map, fully illustrated spreads showing a
butterfly’s life cycle and body parts, as well as a glossary,
index and suggestions for further reading. Key Text Features
