The book, Extrordinary Life: The Story of A Monarch Butterfly, by Lawerence Pringle, includes life cycle, feeding habits, migration, predators, and mating of monarchs through the observation of one butterfly.

Monarch Butterflies are some of the most beautiul insects in the world. Their orange color shows predators that they aren't very tasty. Monarchs feed on nectar found in flowers. They have four wings. When these wings are not in use they fold up over the butterfly's back.
