Life cycle of a butterfly
I just read this book, "Raising Monarchs from Egg to Butterfly"! I was so excited for two reasons. My neighbor had a milkweed plant and shared the process with my granddaughter. Next, we lost a very special friend, and she had a cat she named Monarch. At her funeral, there was a monarch butterfly! I have been curious and in love with them. This book is very informative. The book gave comprehensive steps to create a safe habitat. We also were given tips for caring for caterpillars as well as Ideas for ensuring each pupa transforms into a butterfly and troubleshooting common problems. I recommend this book to anyone who loves butterflies and wants to raise them at home.
