In Explore My World Butterflies, curious kids ages 3 to 7 will be excited to learn about the magical world of butterflies: their beauty, their importance to plant life, and their incredible metamorphosis and migration.

Summary: This book is a cool and easy way to learn about the butterfly world. The book tells about how baby butterfly eggs are hatched ,and how these baby caterpillars are , hungry and ready to eat and grow. It also tells about what kind of food the butterfly eats, and what they are looking for as they are flying. It also talks about where the taste buds are located. The book also tells about the wings of a butterfly how the wings are covered with a thousand tiny powdery scales, and how the scales make up the colors and patterns of the wings.

Personal reaction: I like this butterfly book. It is a short book with a lot of interesting information on butterflies. I also like the close up pictures it shows, and how each page tells me something that I did not know about butterflies.
Extension: This is a book I would use in the classroom for a day or week of exploring the butterfly. The students could learn a lot from each stage of the butterfly.
