Butterfly Blink

(STEM, insect habitat) Winner: Promoting Picture Books’ Art Cover Contest. “Entranced me ... a fascinating concept … luscious colors … stunning illustrations.” - Jean B. Yates, Amazon Vine Voice Reviewer. Follow the stages of a monarch butterfly from caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly. With each blink the butterflies multiply (until a playful dog disperses them).

Children (ages 2 – 6/preschool to first grade, beginning reader) love to make up stories to go with colorful illustrations by award-winning author/illustrator Karl Beckstrand (Sounds in the House: A Mystery in English & Spanish). Wordless book activities include finding and naming insects and characters and cementing vocabulary by describing the action or writing out the narrative.

Includes Pacific Islander/Polynesian child plus information on special concern species, insect habitat conservation, and diversity. Blink and they multiply—blink and they’re gone! See book 1 in this wordless series: Polar Bear Bowler.
