Butterfly Grandma

Butterfly Grandma: Black Swallowtail! reads like a charming, playful, rhyming conversation between grandma and grandchild!  Last summer, grandma and grandchild had such fun inviting the monarch butterflies to their yard that they decided to do it again...but this time...they choose the Black Swallowtail butterfly!

Can you really choose which butterflies you will see in your yard?  Let's find out!

This children's book is illustrated by the author's grandchildren.  The photographs were taken by the author in her own butterfly garden.

The life cycle of the Black Swallowtail butterfly is told thru words and pictures.  A list of host plants for the black swallowtail caterpillar and suggestions for nectar flowers to plant for the butterflies is on the last page.
