1。 This book is an informational easy reader book。 This book tells many facts about butterflies and how they grow and change。 2。 I enjoyed this book because there are many facts about a butterfly's life that I did not know。 3。 I would recommend this book to young readers like ages 4-7 because it is a great practicing book for sight words etc。 4。 There are no diverse characters in this book。 5。 This is not a movie。 1。 This book is an informational easy reader book。 This book tells many facts about butterflies and how they grow and change。 2。 I enjoyed this book because there are many facts about a butterfly's life that I did not know。 3。 I would recommend this book to young readers like ages 4-7 because it is a great practicing book for sight words etc。 4。 There are no diverse characters in this book。 5。 This is not a movie。 。。。more

I am an adult with somewhere between beginner-intermediate French。 I am using these books to help improve my French skills。 I am using these books to read， and reread。 I also write out the text looking up the words unfamiliar to me。These seem just right for me- not a children's picture book， but also not a more complicated novelPlus I learned a bunch about butterflies I am an adult with somewhere between beginner-intermediate French。 I am using these books to help improve my French skills。 I am using these books to read， and reread。 I also write out the text looking up the words unfamiliar to me。These seem just right for me- not a children's picture book， but also not a more complicated novelPlus I learned a bunch about butterflies 。。。more

Caterpillar to Butterfly is a book sharing the many wonderful facts and information on the stages of its life。 This books takes you on a colorful transformation of a caterpillar to a butterfly providing students with great informational text and the life cycle of a butterfly。 This book would be a great transitional lesson into earth science and even if possibly having a class activity where the students would be able to see the actual process of caterpillar life cycle。 Another great activity you Caterpillar to Butterfly is a book sharing the many wonderful facts and information on the stages of its life。 This books takes you on a colorful transformation of a caterpillar to a butterfly providing students with great informational text and the life cycle of a butterfly。 This book would be a great transitional lesson into earth science and even if possibly having a class activity where the students would be able to see the actual process of caterpillar life cycle。 Another great activity you would be able to use in the classroom with this book is an think and share on facts of these animals and even comparing different life cycles of animals being taught in the classroom。The book has many beautiful pictures， good vocabulary， great explanations of the life cycle and shows a lot of different types of butterflies with their names。 This book also make good beginning readers for when your child moves into that stage of reading。 。。。more

Excellent resource for beginning readers。 Detailed information on the life cycle of the butterfly with many large photos。 Perfect for STEM non-fiction reading。

3。5 stars rounded down。 Too much text and too many difficult words for a beginner reader。 Some good photos。

Caterpillar to Butterfly By Laura MArsh。 Informational。 The teaching point of this book is to inform students about metamorphosis in an exciting way。 this book uses illustrations and fun facts in short easy to read sentences to help students learn about different butterfly facts。

This book starts by showing the butterfly in its early stage。 It shows different caterpillars。 Some are pisonuis and some are not。 This book has amazing pictures that show the different pattrens on the butterfly wings。 It shows the butterflies beautiful wingspans。 Butterflies are all around no matter where we are so there is not only a few certian areas they lvie in。

Butterflies start out as caterpillars with 16 legs。 Once it is out of the chrysalis， it finds a mate， and a new life begins！ It is great to share books about nature in our classroom with the kids。 It is even greater to meet students who care about nature。 Children eager to listen about the insect with compound eyes that grow in stages; metamorphosis。 Students can learn the difference between a moth and butterfly， too。

This easy reader takes you through the life cycle of a butterfly plain and simple。I didn't realize that I had read this book when I was younger until I got to the second page。 Most people have strong olfactory memories， but I think my visual memory is strongest。 I remember pouring over this book every single day when we had caterpillars in our classroom。 I saw the photograph and suddenly I was back in second grade， waiting impatiently for the caterpillars to be butterflies。When I have butterflie This easy reader takes you through the life cycle of a butterfly plain and simple。I didn't realize that I had read this book when I was younger until I got to the second page。 Most people have strong olfactory memories， but I think my visual memory is strongest。 I remember pouring over this book every single day when we had caterpillars in our classroom。 I saw the photograph and suddenly I was back in second grade， waiting impatiently for the caterpillars to be butterflies。When I have butterflies in my classroom， I want to prepare my students as if they are going to be our pets。 I want them to know everything there is to know about butterflies and how to care for them。 This book will be a good introduction for that unit。 。。。more

This is a short， easy to read， but very informational book about butterflies。 I like how they have fun facts on the pages too。 When kids see the word fun， it helps them take a better interest in reading the fact， or so I think it would。 I had no clue that most butterfly eggs are green or yellow。 Hmm， even I learn as I read these books so I know students will too！ I really like these little informational books。

Butterflies use camouflage。 They start as eggs。

Great， interesting， and educational book about butterflies， lots a beautiful pictures of all the stages they go through from eggs to adults。 And a page on how they're different from moths that is a little clearer than other I've seen。 Great， interesting， and educational book about butterflies， lots a beautiful pictures of all the stages they go through from eggs to adults。 And a page on how they're different from moths that is a little clearer than other I've seen。 。。。more

Caterpillars turn into Butterflies！ This is a very interesting animal！ There are four stages to this process。 First， the Caterpillar is in an egg。 It then bites a hole in the egg so that it can get it。 It then eats the egg。 The Caterpillar then goes into a Chrysalis。 It stays in the Chrysalis for 14 days and then turns into a Butterfly。 This process is very fun and exciting。 I really enjoyed the pictures in this book。 Although it could be considered boring， it held my attention because of the il Caterpillars turn into Butterflies！ This is a very interesting animal！ There are four stages to this process。 First， the Caterpillar is in an egg。 It then bites a hole in the egg so that it can get it。 It then eats the egg。 The Caterpillar then goes into a Chrysalis。 It stays in the Chrysalis for 14 days and then turns into a Butterfly。 This process is very fun and exciting。 I really enjoyed the pictures in this book。 Although it could be considered boring， it held my attention because of the illustrations。 I would use this in talking about different animals in a classroom。 。。。more

Buen libro fácil de leer para mi hija de 5 años。 De una manera sencilla cubre la vida de las mariposas， ciclo de vida， medio ambiente etc。 Las ilustraciones mantienen la calidad que National Geographic nos tiene acostumbrados。Mi hija le encanta este libro y ahora que ya puede leer por si sola， se ha vuelto algo que la incentiva a leer。 Me pidió más libros de este tipo。
