transformations, be grateful
Photography is simple and elegant, image is right faced page layout, text explanation of the image left face layout. This was purchased for it to be a gift. I believe it is high quality. The image definitions, colours, and natures detailed designs are clear to behold and appreciate. Better still if you are at that place in life for being able to learn and be grateful for the things we take for granted. Great for designers -from fashion through to structural engineers. Regardless of where you are at, it's a stunning book to have on the coffee table or amongst your library Top to learn more
Emerging slowly... graceful!
Received this book as a birthday gift and I couldn't be more happy! It is very thoughtful and gorgeous for the true butterfly lover in your life. Very compact with the beautiful jacket shown. It is a wonderful coffee table book and will surely get a lot of viewing time.My daughters love to glance during commercials and ask many questions. The images are truly breathtaking and there is information provided as to where you would see these beauties. On a typical page, you will find this info:*Information of the name and species and interesting little facts in a small paragraph.*Description: The colors, markings etc.*Habitat: Where they like to live or stay.*Range: Location; as in where in the world.*Wingspan: Self-explanatoryHighly recommend to butterfly and nature lovers in general!

Amethyst, the birthstone for February, is a gemstone that has been prized by royalty throughout the ages for its regal purple color. Top to learn more
A Small Surprise
Upon opening the package I was a surprised at how small it was. And I should have known. By way of comparison, a dime would be bigger. Other than that, it was exactly as pictured, and the wife loved it. That being the most important criteria, I'm happy.

Small but pretty
The picture for this pendant is deceiving; it is a lot smaller than it appears. I know the dimensions were given but the picture gives one the impression that it is bigger than it really is. Nevertheless, my wife likes it very much and that's good enough for me. The price was right at $18.00 so overall I think it was a good buy.

Great decorations!
Excellent decorating tool: you don't have to paint, it's easily repositionable (yeah, I did a lot of repositioning while trying to make it look "perfect" :) ), it instantly brightens and transforms your kid's room. There are enough butterflies in the package to make an impact. I personally could have used more, but that's just my personal taste. I can see how it would be more than enough for somebody who doesn't particularly care to transform a room into a "butterfly jungle".At some point the glue will probably wear off (or not?...), but I've done quite a bit of repositioning and it worked great every time leaving no tracks at all on the wall and sticking just as great the second, third and so on time.The only tiny negative thing (if you can even call it that) is that in the evening when room lights shine on the butterflies, you do see some shine, so it becomes evident that these are plastic stickers as opposed to paint, but it's really a small thing.Overall: I...

These are great for decorating a room
I ordered these not exactly knowing what to expect. I wanted to decorate my 5-year olds room without ruining the walls. Right now, she loves butterflies, but will she in 2-5 years. I ordered these not knowing exactly what to expect. She (we) had a blast finding places to put these on her wall. You think 26 aren't enough, believe me, they are. I almost ordered two and I'm glad I didn't. They went on very easily (no instructions provided). Just peel and stick. I have to say, I haven't tried to remove them yet, but I can't see their would be a problem in doing that. I would definitely get something like this again. I just wish they had adult type things by this company. Putting up a picture or two like this would be great. Top to learn more

Beautiful and Fun
We absolutely love the butterflies. I put them in my girls room and there are so many that it looks like they are flying all over the room. The wings are a little transparent so if your room is painted a bright color it will definately show through. On a white wall, they look really good. The colors are vibrant and all of them are different. We love these decals. A super buy especially for the price. Top to learn more

So fun I Bought My Own!
I bought one of these last year for my nieces. I also got one for me, and I'm in my 30's. I waited until the spring time to send in my caterpillar certificate. They came in their own little container with just enough food. So you don't need to feed them anything. I tried to put some real food such as leaves from the plants they like to eat in the wild, but they preferred the food that came with them. I think I received 6 caterpillars and they all turned into butterflies. I let them go a day or two after they emerged. Kids are completely fascinated by the process from caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly. One word of caution, it may not be the best thing to get for Christmas since you may have to wait until spring to get your caterpillars. They will send them in the winter, but I didn't want the butterflies to die on me or freeze to death if I let them go. Top to learn more

Even the Big Guy likes it
We set up a Butterfly Garden for the kids and, as you've probably already read by others' reviews, they loved it. What surprised me most was how intrigued I found *myself* by it. All 5 caterpillars grew remarkably quickly, and all five emerged as loveable butterflies - the surprise was how I caught myself calling the kids over to look and running when they called me to take a peek at them. They were the best pets I ever had for a month! No muss, no fuss - and what a great experience, even for the he-man, butterfly-poo-pooin' dad. Top to learn more

Witness one of nature's most spectacular transformations up close with this reusable, collapsible habitat. Fine, transparent mesh lets you see butterfly metamorphosis up close. Product includes easy-to-use feeder and complete instructions for habitat. Butterfly larvae with food shipped directly to your home. The habitat collapses for storage when not in use. You can adopt and raise a handful of caterpillars, watch them transform into painted lady butterflies, then lift the garden cover to release your beautiful specimens into the wild. This exciting habitat makes a fabulous introduction to the miracles of nature. The larvae and food available round the year. Top to learn more
Experience nature up close with the Live Butterfly Garden from Insect Lore. This enthralling educational kit gives kids the opportunity to observe butterflies through every stage of their lifecycle. Children ages four and up can observe five real caterpillars eat and grow to form their chrysalis and then emerge as Painted Lady butterflies. Children will love feeding the butterflies in their included observation habitat and then releasing them into the wild.
Live Butterfly Garden At a Glance:
Age: 4 years and up
Requirements: Larvae, which are available with the included mail-in coupon ($5 shipping and handling required; ships to all U.S. states except Hawaii).
Warranty: Insect Lore guarantees that at least 3 of the 5 butterfly larvae sent through the mail will metamorphose into adult butterflies.
Watch larvae turn into butterflies! View larger.
12-inch habitat, guide, dropper, and coupon. View larger.
Live Caterpillars Mailed Directly to You The Butterfly Garden comes with a coupon to send away for five caterpillars. The caterpillars are hatched from eggs in a butterfly nursery and mailed to your home in a special clear container, complete with caterpillar food.
Live caterpillars and food
Keeping the caterpillars out of direct sunlight, children can watch them eat, grow, and after seven to ten days, form their chrysalides and begin their transformation into butterflies. The transformation from caterpillar to butterfly normally takes two to three weeks: seven to ten days in caterpillar stage, and seven to ten days in chrysalis stage. Insect Lore guarantees that at least three of the five caterpillars you receive will grow into adult butterflies.
Observe the Metamorphosis Up Close The Butterfly Garden comes with a pop-up butterfly observation habitat, which is a cylindrical mesh container measuring 12 inches tall. Once the caterpillars become chrysalides, they can be transferred to the habitat, where they will complete their transformation into adult Painted Lady butterflies. Children will be excited to keep a close eye on the changing chrysalides and watch this seemingly magical metamorphosis.
Your Very Own Butterflies Once the butterflies emerge, children can have lots of fun feeding them and watching them eat. The kit comes with a dropper for squeezing sugar water into the habitat for the butterflies to drink. It is recommended that flowers be placed in the habitat for the butterflies to rest on while they enjoy their meals. Kids will delight in observing the butterflies unfurl their proboscises to suck up the sugar water.
If you receive your butterflies during warmer weather, when temperatures are above 55 degrees, you can experience the excitement of releasing the butterflies into the wild. Caterpillars are available for delivery year-round, so if yours arrive in a colder month, you can keep your fully-grown butterflies in the mesh habitat for their lifespan, which is about two to four weeks.
Additional mail-in certificates are available for order, so once you've released your butterflies, you can reuse the Butterfly Garden and experience the magic of metamorphosis again and again.
What's in the Box Mesh butterfly habitat, feeding dropper, activity guide, complete instructions, and mail-in coupon for five caterpillars, and food.
Did you know that painted ladies (the butterflies, that is) taste with their feet and have 10,000eyes? You and your kids will be fascinated by all you learn about these beautiful creatures with the Butterfly Garden from Insect Lore. The kit comes with a relatively easy-to-assemble observation chamber; supplies for feeding the butterflies (you provide only sugar and water); an informative booklet of clear instructions and butterfly facts; and a certificate for three to five free painted lady caterpillars. The metamorphosis from larva to butterfly takes about three weeks from when you receive the caterpillar larvae (which arrive in a small container with all the nutrients they need). Your children can watch the larvae increase dramatically in size, form chrysalides, and finally emerge into full-fledged painted ladies (it's suggested that they release the butterflies after a few days of observation). This would make a wonderful activity for families with kids of any age, but younger children will need help assembling the observation chamber and reading the instruction booklet. (Note: The manufacturer recommends that butterflies should not be set free in temperatures lower than 55 degrees Fahrenheit.) --Rachel RadwayTop to learn more
Fun, educational, and really cool, too!
I bought this kit for my 5-year-old, but my 3-year-old wound up loving it every bit as much as the older one. The caterpillars arrive in a sealed container with everything they need--all you have to do is observe them. After a week, we placed the cocoons in the habitat, and out hatched five gorgeous butterflies. What's more, they began laying eggs within a few days, and before you know it, we had DOZENS of teeny-tiny baby caterpillars! Of course, we set them free outside (I'm no bug farmer), and we enjoyed painted lady butterflies throughout the rest of the summer. This kit provided my children with a wonderful, exciting learning experience that they will never forget! Top to learn more

Great book!
This book is a great addition to our home library! We had ordered live caterpillars and were learning about the life cycle of a butterfly, and this is one of the books that we really enjoyed! This is a great book for school-age kids, but we modified it for preschool age and it was great. I just omitted parts of it to make it shorter and my daughter loves the rhyming and pictures, and there are lots of great butterfly facts! Top to learn more
My, Oh My, A Butterfly!
I recommend this book and all the others in the series. They are each around 45 pages of fun facts that our grandson, not quite 3 years old, loved. He kept asking for more, and sat through three books in one sitting. He later repeated facts from the books, showing that he was really listening and learning. Top to learn more

The BEST Book on Butterflies for Children
I have adopted a class that is now in First Grade. The school's motif this year is the butterfly, so I promptly ordered about 5 books on butterflies. I have to tell you that I ordered the Cat in the Hat book because I thought it would be cute. I didn't really expect much substance. I was WRONG!! The Cat in the Hat Butterfly Book was so AMAZING that I promptly ordered all 12 or so other books in the series like, "Is a Camel a Mammal?", etc. When I was growing up, the Cat in the Hat books were cute, but full of fluff. NOW the Cat in the Hat books are PACKED with information! I even learned a few things I didn't know!!! You will not go wrong with ANY of the Cat in the Hat books, but the Butterfly Book is simply brilliant! Excellent book for young children! Top to learn more
With a little help from the Cat in the Hat, Sally and Dick observe a small miracle in their own backyard—the metamorphosis of an egg into a caterpillar into a chrysalis into a bright new butterfly! Along the way, beginning readers will find out how butterflies see thousands of images at once, drink nectar from flowers, avoid predators, and can be identified by size, shape, and color. Readers will also follow the amazing migration of millions of monarchs. Top to learn more

Thumbs Up for the Music Box, Thumbs Down for the Packaging
This little box delighted my friend who loves butterflies. We were celebrating her graduation from a masters degree program. Note To the Marketing Agency that designed the packaging: I agree with the guy who said the packaging of the box with the 6 year-old girl's picture was a negative. These boxes have much more appeal than as a children's gift. I tossed the packaging and wrapped the box in tissue and put it in a gift bag. It was a BIG hit. Top to learn more
A little box a priceless gift.
I have purchased a couple of these music boxes and used them for a gift for my sister and a gift for my friend. I cut out circles of paper and wrote quotes and memories of myself and who I was giving it to then wrapped them for birthday gifts and each year on their birthdays I plan to send them more quotes and memories to add to their box. They loved it as I loved making it. Top to learn more

I made the mistake of purchasing this for my girlfriend ,I like to call her "Ma joli papillon".I had it sent to her sight unseen,and I watched on webcam as she opened it...First letdown was the outside box which had pictures of smiling 6yr old girls,and when she pulled it out ,we saw that its made of lacquered cardboard.The saving grace was that the size was okay and the artwork on the outside was pretty but the quality at 18$ is not there..huge disappointment..Way too much money for a jewelry box made of cardboard ,9.99$ would be more appropriate Top to learn more
