A lovely and accurate ecological message for current and future generations. These connections to nature, as crucial to our own wellbeing as humans on this planet, are expressed with thoughtfulness and creativity in this story.
Overreliance on pesticides have driven Monarch butterflies to the edge of extinction. They must be protected under federal law, under the Endangered Species Act, and we as a society must reject the chemical industry's future for our food, and instead adopt a more sustainable one. Ms. Parrish's book does vital public service in teaching the next generation these important lessons.
I had a monarch butterfly once that I raised just like Johnny Butterflyseed did! I really enjoyed the story of saving the monarch butterflies and teaching other kids how to raise and care for them. I think monarch butterflies are important because they are so beautiful and teach us about our world.
