Have you ever wondered exactly how long the cycle of a butterfly is? This is a great non-fiction book written for young readers that explains it well. It uses scientific vocabulary words and text to engage young readers. The pictures complement the text and help add to the understanding of the life cycle. At the end of the story, the boy in the story is able to see the egg transform into a beautiful butterfly. 

This was a great information book for young readers. The pictures and text were accessible and engaging. The protagonist is not caucasian, but his exact ethnicity is unknown.
