I bought this book for my daughter last Christmas. We still read it at bedtime. The paper butterflies are beautiful and tough. The writing is factual and engaging and the butterflies have kept their shape and stood-up pretty well to little hands bending, pushing, and pulling. The paper butterfly which comes with the book is nice too. We also have the "Beetle" book, which is pretty spectacular as well.

I bought this book for a 7 year-old girl who reads fluently, with the thought in mind that she might start enjoying reading science books, if she sees pretty pictures "popping-up". She loves it... her 4 year-old brother is mesmerized with the book too... I bought another book for them.

Wow! Butterflies are almost a natural subject for a pop-up book, and Sabuda does not disappoint. The butterflies and moths spring to life and fly right out of the book at you! The easy narration flows well and is full of interesting facts. Makes a perfect springboard for curious young minds that want to go on and learn more about our winged friends. Comes with a beautiful paper butterfly in a paper frame for your wall. Also check out its companion book -- "Beetles." (Yes, the bugs. But you'll be surprised how beautiful they can be.)

This is, without a doubt one of the finest and most beautiful books ever written. The magnificent, myriad Pop-Up butterflies per page are breathtaking. Plus, the detailed information on butterfliies is tremendous.
Can you tell I liked it?

This is an exceptionally beautifully illustrated book. It holds the interest of my 6 yr and 3 yr sons. The pop-ups work well and with different textures the children can learn with the sense of touch as well as sight. We love this book

If you love butterflies, or love pop-ups, this is a don't miss book! The pop-ups are terrific...very detailed and intricate. In addition, the butterfly facts are correct! You can't miss with this book!!

My soon to be four year old son (and Mommy) LOVES this pop up book. It is a wonderful work of art and informative! Two BIG thumbs up on this one!

I was very very happy with this book it was as if it just came off the book sellers shelf ....thanks for a good product!!

Beautiful book, lots of information about this insect and
not only for children, adults will find the information very
interesting and will be enthusiastic about the engineering work
to construct the insect. Highly recommended!

This is a very intricate and detailed pop-up of insects. We have looked at it and tried to decide whether the creator should be considered an artist or an engineer. It is a wonderful way to introduce young children to the wonders of the insect world.
