Magnificent Monarchs

32 pp. | Lerner/Millbrook | September, 2000 | Library ISBN 0-7613-1700-7 $$21.40
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Gay Holland. A boy narrator finds a monarch egg on a leaf and ostensibly observes its maturation into a butterfly, then describes her migration and subsequent return, all the while--cloyingly--referring to her as his "friend." The pale but richly detailed colored pencil illustrations are a good match with the poetic prose. An end section answers common questions about monarchs.
