Butterfly Tree - Hardcover

"The text reads aloud smoothly, suiting this especially well for use with a group...Even collections with many monarch titles will want to add this one for its masterful evocation of a child's sense of wonder at the natural world."

"Wu's double-page impressionist pastel drawings in smudged tones of vivid orange, yellow green, blue, and deep brown echo the dreamlike quality of the narrative."

"This is an excellent wedding of evocative text and dreamy, misty art in a book as much about making memories as it is about the butterflies' flight."

A lyrical exploration of the magic of monarch butterfly migration and a sensitive mother-daughter story, all in one stunning package. When Jilly sees an intriguing orange cloud near her home, her mother encourages her to investigate--and introduces her to the mystery and wonder of the natural world.
