The Monarch's Progress: Poems with Wings

32 pp. | Boyds/Wordsong | March, 2008 | Trade ISBN 978-1-59078-558-4 $16.95
(4) K-3 Invite a butterfly to sip from "the friendly smile / of a watermelon." Watch while a "Monarch splits / Apart its chrysalis pajama." Or listen to "Only a whisper from ancient roots, / and cyclones of orange rise" when the butterflies migrate to Mexico. Delicate colored-pencil illustrations accompany these eighteen poems of uneven quality. Notes about the poems are included.
