About the author

I wrote my first book when I was 8 years old. I glued photos of my cats in a blank book and wrote about them, too. Now I am an internationally-published children's author commended by the Library of Congress for my work encouraging children to read.
I write in a room between a deli and an art gallery on a small town street. I can see families walking by, and I can hear children laughing and playing. It helps me to remember what exactly I'm doing this for - creating books for families all over the world to use together, and helping children to love words.

[Set · Rating 5 out of 5]

Beautiful children's book depicting the life cycle of the butterfly. Such a beautiful create yet so fragile in our ecosystem. Several butterfly species like the Monarch Butterflies are facing extinction or experiencing significant population declines.

This is a basic reading book for children telling the simple life cycle of the butterfly. It is clear and concise with pretty pictures but the details of the splitting of the caterpillar's skin several times in the book was a little dramatic.
