Review quotes

"Butterflies for Kids is full of beautiful photography and illustrations. Lauren goes beyond the basics but has still crafted a resource that is user-friendly for even the newest entomologist. I am pretty well-versed in the butterfly life cycle, but I have learned several new things from this book! Lauren brings her years of experience in entomology and children's programming to Butterflies for Kids. It is a must-read for anyone with a curious mind!" —Nicole Temple, Vice President of Education, Houston Museum of Natural Science
