Spectacularly beautiful butterfly illustrations accompany the text which is full of informative facts about butterflies, their development, migration and habitat. More facts than are typical in many butterfly books. Sylvia Long never disappoints.

A Butterfly Is Patient is the third and latest nature book from the extremely talented team of Hutts and Long. The first two being An Egg Is Quiet and A Seed Is Sleepy. Based on those two I didn't expect this one to be anything less than stellar and it definitely delivered. I still say An Egg Is ...
