National Geographic Readers: Caterpillar to Butterfly

Butterflies are all around us. It's hard to believe these majestic insects with impressive wingspans and beautifully colored and patterned wings were once creepy crawly caterpillars. How in the world does this transformation happen? This Level 1 Reader gives kids an up-close look at exactly how a caterpillar becomes a butterfly. With bonus information including different types of butterflies and poisonous caterpillars, this reader is one of a kind.

This high-interest, educationally vetted series of beginning readers features the magnificent images of National Geographic, accompanied by texts written by experienced, skilled children's book authors.

The inside back cover of the paperback edition is an interactive feature based upon the book. Level 1 books reinforce the content of the book with a kinesthetic learning activity. In Level 2 books readers complete a Cloze letter, or fun fill-in, with vocabulary words.

National Geographic supports K-12 educators with ELA Common Core Resources.

My son loves this book, as do I. National Geographic hit a home run on this one.

Not present is National Geographic's habit of digitally adding unnecessary characters to host the book, or their penchant for unnecessary vocabulary ("mojo", for example).

What is present are caterpillars and butterflies. Lots of them. In photos and in text, the book is sure to captivate the interest of children everywhere.

Oh, and two tips for parents whose children request they read this book over and over to the point where you groan when they want you to read the book. First, liven up the book by substituting the word "monster" for "butterfly". This sent my son into gales of laughter one evening. Second, amuse yourself by adding the word "midlife" before the word "chrysalis". The play on words will be entirely lost on your child, and it'll bring a smile to your own face.

Then buy another National Geographic Books and hide the one you've read twenty times in the last month.

Bought this to go with our caterpillar to butterfly project. My 3 yr old grand-daughter was fascinated to learn about their transformation. We read the book when we received our "cup of caterpillars," then we kept referring back to the pictures throughout the weeks, as they formed into chrysalides, then into butterflies. Great book with plenty of photographs. Good for teaching.

I have liked all of the National Geographic readers. We got this one when I did a live butterfly habitat with my 6 yr old as a homeschool science project and it made a very nice lesson. Beautiful pictures, good vocabulary, great explanations of the life cycle and shows a lot of different types of butterflies with their names (important because we always want to know!) These books also make good beginning readers for when your child moves into that stage of reading. Great purchase!

Was a birthday present along with a butterfly garden for my 7-yr old granddaughter. She absolutely loved this book, could read it herself and was fascinated by the pictures. When the caterpillars in her butterfly garden became large enough to form a chrysalis she would explain to everyone why and how it happened, then she waited patiently for the emerging butterfly always checking with her book in hand. She has now decided that her next year's science project will be to follow the stages of butterfly development. All due to this book. She wants to photograph her own stages and has already learned to spell the important new words in development. Thank you for this science boost for Ellie.

We gave these out as party favors for my 4-year-old daughter's birthday and everyone enjoyed getting it and has given great feedback. I like giving favors that are educational and the pictures are beautiful.
