“We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.” –Maya Angelou
We delight, also, in Eric Carle’s artistry, and the aerobatics of this very hungry caterpillar.

Oh, I doo ove these. I wish everyone planted butterfly flowers.
I do, too, Linda! I think sometimes we get confused, what with all the conflicting information about what kind of plants to grow, and where. But if everyone grew just one Monarch butterfly-attracting plant (milkweed, especially), it’s possible that we could bring them back from the brink.
Lovely application of Eric Carle and Maya Angelou! My oldest granddaughter just told me about her and her classmates “raising” 2 butterflies each and releasing them into the school’s butterfly garden. How neat is that?!
That’s fantastic! I can only imagine their excitement and wonder, at seeing the life cycle up close. Way to instill a love for Mother Nature and her winged beauties at a young age. *happy sighs*
