My Monarch Journal: Parent-Teacher Edition

Rating:
Summary: Monarch Journal is Outstanding
Review: This book is an excellent teaching guide for young children and adults to learn about the miracle of metamorphosis of a monarch butterfly. There are many sharp, colorful photographs showing in detail each stage from the egg to the butterfly. On each page below the stage by stage photos there is an area for keeping a journal about one's own butterfly's development including an area for an original drawing. The back part of this parent/teacher version of the book has much information about raising a monarch, and study questions for each page of the journal. The many photos are the best I have seen of the life cycle of the monarch, and make the book accesible for preschoolers as well as older children and adults.
