Seemingly delicate monarch butterflies undertake one of nature's toughest migration journeys each year, flying thousands of miles in search of warmer temperatures. Learn about their awe-inspiring travels in this photo-filled Level 3 Reader from National Geographic Kids. Making the yearly trip from the Northern United States and Canada to the Oyamel forest of Mexico is no easy task, and it takes five generations of butterflies in order to do so. Learn about how these beautiful insects battle cold temperatures and the threat of starvation to complete an almost 3,000 mile journey over the course of two months, only to have to turn and around and head back home. Featuring expert-vetted text, brilliant images, and a fun approach to reading, National Geographic Kids Readers are proven to be winners with kids, parents, and educators. NGK Level 3 Readers are ideal for children who are reading fluently on their own, with layered information and varied sentence structures. Looking for more awe-inspiring tales of animal journeys? There's a whole globe to explore!

Gorgeous Photos
The photos are stunning and very interesting and easy to read facts on every page. Although technically for children I bought this for my mother with dementia and it is her favorite. I enjoyed it myself as well.

A great non fiction book for elementary students
National Geographic is a great brand of children's books to read to a classroom. My students like the simple jokes that are found on a few of the pages. This book is also helpful when teaching about non fiction attributes such as glossary, labels, table of contents, etc.

Love NatGeo Kids!
Awesome book! Between the pictures and text, it would be interesting to a wide range of ages. My granddaughter is 1st grade & she loved a NatGeo Kids magazine I picked up a couple weeks ago, (first I had seen). I can't wait to give her this. I decided to order direct from Amazon rather than do the subscription based on numerous reviews concerning subscription/renewal issues. It is full of info & pictures & is gift quality!

Improvement
This book is missing some "Weird but True" facts. The index reference does not match all the pictures. The "10 Cool Things About Monarchs" also has matching issues. However, overall this book is a great read for children.

Para crianças que se interessam por ciências
Vale muito a pena custo x benefício. Leitura indicada para criancas que já leem textos maiores em ingles, dá para ir lendo aos poucos. Minha filha adora, leva na mochila e lê ou apenas vê nas horas vagas
