Melissa Stewart shares with young readers the basic facts about
butterflies, including how they transform from caterpillars to
butterflies, where they live, what they eat, and how they benefit
plants and animals. Sidebars throughout the book contain
information about how human action has harmed butterflies in the
past, and the many ways people can protect certain butterfly
populations, like by preserving forests and meadows and cutting
down on pesticide use. Also included are pointers on how youngsters
can help butterflies in their own neighborhood.
Stewart reminds children of the interconnectedness of our world
and shows how the actions of one species can inadvertently harm
another. Bond's realistically detailed illustrations highlight the
diversity of the species, from the Schaus swallowtail butterflies
in southern Florida to the endangered Mitchell's satyrs.
