A child's curiosity motivates her to learn about - and observe - the life cycle of the monarch, including its amazing transformation from egg to caterpillar, then chrysalis, and finally to a fully-grown butterfly. Based on a true story, an illustrated flip-book motion feature is included that runs through the entire book and will fascinate the young reader.

Full-color photography portrays the science and wonder of the monarch, its habitat and its breathtaking transformation. The concept of a nature journal as a tool for young explorers to learn and understand the natural world is also introduced.

A Monarch Adventure was named a National Indie Excellence Award Finalist 2021.
