Great instructional tool!!
I grow butterfly gardens and raise caterpillars. This book has beautiful color pictures of the most common butterflies. I have used this book in schools and senior centers to inform children and adults how important butterflies are to our world. The children especially love the color pictures. I purchased this book as a gift for my friend as I have my own copy.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
