The Magnificent Book of Butterflies and Moths by Barbara Taylor
GET UP CLOSE TO STUNNING BUTTERFLIES AND FASCINATING MOTHS Take a journey through flower-filled meadows, dusky woodlands and steamy rainforests to find 36 magnificent butterflies and moths - from the delicate glasswing butterfly to the mighty Hercules moth. Find out which butterfly has the biggest wingspan and how the red cracker butterfly got its name. Learn how these insects undergo an amazing transformation, turning from a caterpillar into a butterfly or moth. Discover how eyespots on the wings of the peacock butterfly scare off predators, and why its bright colours send a message that it is poisonous to eat. With full-colour, poster-sized illustrations accompanied by intriguing facts, this is the ideal compendium for all the family.
'Perfect for curious minds aged 8+.. It’s a great book for children who are fascinated by the intricate world of insects.' The School Reading List
