With Jeanne Megel’s new book, you can teach your kids a wonderful lesson they’ll never forget by raising stunning monarch butterflies in your back garden this summer.
Her book has been written to help everyday home gardeners in Michigan work collectively towards the conservation of the monarch butterfly, a beautiful but endangered species.
Megel hopes that her efforts will continue the ongoing educational awareness work of the Frederik Meijer Sculpture Park and Gardens.
As the Frederik Meijer park is especially beloved by children, Megel hopes her new book can become a way for you and your children to bond as you protect the beautiful butterfly.
With your children already spending long days in the backyard, she believes that now is the perfect time to embark upon a holiday science and conservation project.
While you may think of butterflies as being particularly ephemeral, monarchs which are born in the late summer are born to migrate, so they often live for as long as nine months.
In ‘Raise Healthy Monarchs At Home’, Megel teaches readers of all ages how they can raise monarch butterflies in their very own back garden by following her clear and simple steps.
