A Monarch Butterfly Story

After learning about threats to Monarch Butterflies, a young boy inspires his class and community to learn about the butterfly’s life cycle and to plant a butterfly-friendly garden — offering the iconic insects safe places to lay eggs and native plants full of nectar to fuel their long migration. Young readers will learn about the Monarch Butterfly, its cycle from egg to caterpillar to butterfly, threats to its survival, and respectful human interaction to help conserve this increasingly threatened species.
