Review: Excellent science book! - For all those caterpillars we find in the yard, my children may now identify which butterfly it will become. It's a great book, full color photos, and just the right size for my kids to flip through quickly to find the info they need. By the way, a stack of nature guides is all I use for our homeschool science for the first few years. It helps them learn to "look it up" and discover the wonders of creation.
Review: Butterfly Caterpillar - I bought this for my grandniece. I am a serious amateur lepidopterist and she asked me what the caterpillar was that she found in her garden. I told her and then thought that kids often find caterpillars crawling around, they are funny looking or colorful, and it might be a good idea for me to get her a book on caterpillars. It is easy to find pictures of the butterflies, not so easy for their larva. This was a good general introduction of caterpillars she might find. I told her how to rear one in a potted plant. Later she called and told me the book was right because the butterfly was what the book said the caterpillar was. I think I have a budding scientist in my family.
