Book Description
Few things in nature are more miraculous than the total transformation that takes place during the life cycle of a butterfly. Not only is the transformation fantastic, but the "LIFE LESSONS" that can be learned from this transformation are equally fantastic! Unfortunately many of the most basic facts about the butterfly life cycle are misunderstood and inaccurately taught. Follow the captivating and colorful butterfly life cycle from egg, to caterpillar, to chrysalis, to adult butterfly. But life is not always as simple as it may seem, as two little caterpillars soon discover. The two happy little caterpillars are enjoying a day of fun when they are confronted by butterflies from a neighboring tree who tease the little caterpillars for not having wings. Inspired and encouraged by their mother, the little caterpillars find hope and courage that one day they too will be as beautiful as their mother. In addition to a wonderful and captivating story, each beautifully illustrated page is loaded with amazing facts that will have you saying, "I never knew that!" For example: Did you know that the term "cocoon," when referring to a butterfly, is not correct? Do you know what the difference is between a cocoon and a chrysalis? Did you know that the chrysalis of a butterfly, often incorrectly referred to as a cocoon, is not "spun" by the caterpillar? It's true! A butterfly does not come from a cocoon. Furthermore, a chrysalis is not spun by the caterpillar. Do you know the four stages of the butterfly life cycle? How does the transition between each of the four butterfly life cycle stages occur? Why does a caterpillar eat only leaves and plants, and yet when that same caterpillar becomes a butterfly it can sip only sweet nectar for sustenance? How far will a caterpillar travel in its lifetime? How long does a caterpillar remain a caterpillar? What does a caterpillar do when it gets thirsty? How long does an adult butterfly live? These, and many more amazing facts are taught alongside a wonderful and inspiring story. Written by top-selling Amazon's Choice author Lance Douglas, this informative, educational and uplifting book promises to be a favorite that you and your curious children will never forget.

Ron J West (ronjwest.com) has been inspiring corporate transformation for more than 25 years, in in companies large and small. He wrote Corporate Caterpillars - How to Grow Wings to provide a kind of "blueprint" you can use to create your own individual and corporate transformation to move from limited to limitless.

You are holding this book perhaps because you feel that either you or your company is stuck in some way.

Perhaps you are a CEO, CFO, President, Vice President, Department Manager, or Project Leader. You are probably a business leader in a position to affect change in your organization; maybe your enterprise is a small family business or an international conglomerate. It matters not whether your company is a for-profit or a not-for profit, a public or a private enterprise, this book will show how to move from a world of limited options to a realm of limitless possibilities, transforming both you and your company.

“For the lover of all things lepidopterous, The Book of Caterpillars is a beautifully curated collection and guide to 600 species from around the globe.” —The American Biology Teacher While most of us picture caterpillars as cute fuzzballs munching on leaves, there is much more to them than we imagine. A caterpillar’s survival hinges on finding enough food and defending itself from the array of natural enemies lined up to pounce and consume. And the astounding adaptations and strategies they have developed to maximize their chances of becoming a butterfly or moth are only just beginning to be understood, from the Spicebush Swallowtail caterpillar that resembles a small snake to the Eastern Carpenter Bee Hawkmoth caterpillar that attempts to dissuade potential predators by looking like a diseased leaf. The Book of Caterpillars unveils the mysteries of six hundred species from around the world, introducing readers to the complexity and beauty of these underappreciated insects. With the advent of high-quality digital macrophotography, the world of caterpillars is finally opening up. The book presents a wealth of stunning imagery that showcases the astonishing diversity of caterpillar design, structure, coloration, and patterning. Each entry also features a two-tone engraving of the adult specimen, emphasizing the wing patterns and shades, as well as a population distribution map and table of essential information that includes their habitat, typical host plants, and conservation status. Throughout the book are fascinating facts that will enthrall expert entomologists and curious collectors alike. A visually rich and scientifically accurate guide to six hundred of the world’s most peculiar caterpillars, this volume presents readers with a rare, detailed look at these intriguing forms of insect life.
