Summary:
Butterflies have always been eye-catching insects for young entomologists. Readers of this inviting and accessible volume are introduced to several kinds of butterflies and the unique markings and vivid colorings that have helped them adapt to their different habitats. After learning the rules of a responsible wildlife observer (including "keep your distance"), readers are encouraged to become field scientists by heading out into nature with a magnifying glass to see these bugs for themselves. Beautiful photographs and a vibrant design make the science content especially fun and lively.
