Butterflies (Penguin Young Readers, Level 2)

Young children can try out their reading wings as they learn about the life cycle of a butterfly. The simply written text goes hand-in-hand with the striking cut-paper artwork of Spider's Lunch artist Ron Broda to create a colorful introduction to these fascinating insects.

Reader Level 2: Level 2 is for Progressing Readers who can read longer sentences with simple dialogue. These books offer pictures and context clues, in-depth plot development, and are available in both fiction and nonfiction books.
