Butterflies & Moths
Almost all children are fascinated by living things. The books in the
Usborne First Nature series help them towards a greater understanding
and appreciation of the plants and animals around them. The beautifully
detailed, informative illustrations appeal not only to younger
children, who will enjoy the experience of sharing the books with an adult,
but also to older children, who will find that the books provide them with a
colorful introduction to serious nature study. Care has been taken to
simplify the text so that children can read it themselves. Ages 5
years and up.
7.65" x 8". 24 pages. No. BLA20-FL. Only

Living Tropical
Greenhouse - Create a Home for Butterflies
Create a miniature tropical rainforest--with passion flowers, banana plants,
and other magnificent exotics--in your greenhouse or conservatory, and make
a home for the most colorful, unique butterflies in the world! Monarchs,
Asian swallowtails, and a host of South American species will thrive in this
habitat, including some that have become rare in their natural environments.
Play a vital role in their conservation, caring for these delicate creatures
in every stage of their lifecycle. Set up the right ecosystem (heating,
light, water, and plants) for their "paradise"; understand feeding,
breeding, and courtship rituals; care for young ones; move and house larvae;
and prevent health problems. A guide to butterflies helps you select the
right ones, and full-color photographs throughout show what wonders await
you! 160 pages (all in color), 7 1/4 x 9 3/4

Eyewitness:
Butterflies and Moths
More on Eyewitness Books
Here is an original and exciting look at
the natural history of butterflies and moths. Stunning real-life photographs
provide a unique "eyewitness" view of the behavior of these complex and
vividly beautiful insects, their structure and life cycle, where they live
and feed, and how they protect themselves. See a butterfly emerging from its
chrysalis, how silk moths make silk, a caterpillar eating its own eggshell,
and butterflies that have become extinct. Learn how a caterpillar can
frighten off predators, why some adult moths never eat, which butterfly
migrates the length of a subcontinent, and how to breed butterflies and
moths. Discover how a caterpillar transforms itself into a chrysalis, which
butterfly lives with ants, why butterflies and moths often mimic each other,
how a chrysalis can look like a dead leaf, and much, much more.
