About the book:
Every year, like clockwork, a young boy named Hudson visits the same hidden, special spot to find monarch butterfly caterpillars. He takes to heart the message, "If you remove something from nature or its natural habitat, you must learn how to take care of it." With a little help from BeBe the horse, follow along as Hudson explores the monarch nursery and discovers the remarkable, wondrous circle of life.
Learn how to safely collect monarch eggs and caterpillars with Hudson's help. This young boy's excitement and love of the monarchs is contagious, inspiring the reader to help our small, winged friends repopulate and thrive.
