Pretty sure I ordered New and it clearly used. Decent condition but thumb creases on every page and a bent cover. The book is perfect for little ones and the info is all there and visible.

This book is the perfect addition to our caterpillar unit! The students love reading it and looking at the pictures. I love the jokes and quizzes throughout the book too.

This is a review of: National Geographic Readers: Caterpillar to Butterfly Booklet
I purchased this booklet as an accessory for the Lore Butterfly Farm I gave to my granddaughter. I thought it would be beneficial and help explain the different stages as they occur. I read it and I am pleased with my decision to include it. In my opinion it is well worth the money. This review was written by LynKin.

It’s clear and easy to read with lovely photos

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 27, 2020

Verified Purchase

My daughter is dyslexic, so it’s sometimes difficult to find books she can read independently, as the text is very simple, not to many lines of text, just short sharp information, she doesn’t get bored trying to focus on ‘wobbling jumbled letters’ as can happen with a full page of writing, and as a non - fiction, that’s what she needs! Along side our science about garden nature, it’s fab!

Arrived damaged but the contents of the book itself are great, just what i was looking for to encourage independent reading in an early reader
