Amazon.com: The most beautiful of insects, the butterfly has long held the attention of artists and scientists alike. Eyewitness: Butterfly & Moth explores their world (and that of their less glamorous cousins) in the sharp clarity we expect from DK Vision. Watch caterpillars munch through vast quantities of greens, mummify themselves in cocoons, then emerge as glorious heralds of spring.

Parents, kids, teachers, and even teens will enjoy Eyewitness: Butterfly & Moth as a fun way to explore these tiny flying gems. --Rob Lightner
