365 Books, Please

365 books, please is a year-long project by yours truly, Anna L. I am a pre-service teacher (a.k.a. grad student), aspiring to build my classroom library by December 31st, 2011. Each day, I'll contribute a work to the collection. You'll find short and sweet posts about pieces such as picture books, instructional texts, juvenile fiction, comics, classics, and more! Cultivating future generations of avid readers is the goal. Your support is greatly appreciated, and recommendations are welcome.

Monarch Butterflies & Walruses

This instructional text is actually a two-sided feature (hence the right-sided spine). Learn about Monarch Butterflies, then flip the book over and read through the other side about Walruses.

Monarch Butterfly

Did you know? Monarchs can...

... fly up to 12 miles per hour

...fly nearly 100 miles a day

...travel in flocks (?) of over a 1000

The four year old I nanny for was intrigued by this text, but her mother and I were the ones gushing "For real??? I never knew that!" Learn more about the butterfly's fascinating life-cycle in this beautifully illustrated instructional text. Apparently I'm on a science kick...thanks to the mission field :)

Ages 4-8
