Waiting for Wings Rise and Shine Lois Ehlert 9780152026080 Books Reviews
- Can never have enough Lois Ehlert illustrations. My grandson loves to look at anything illustrated by Lois Ehlert. He doesn't copy her work but the colors inspire him to draw with lots of color. He especially likes the books (like this) involving nature. This doesn't look like a book for boys but it has lots of facts about butterflies and caterpillars. Also "Feathers for Lunch" is a great reference to use for teaching information about back yard birds. "Eating the Alphabet" is another favorite title by Lois Ehlert. None of her books disappoint.
- Love this book! So creative, so detailed and so informative. It perfectly describes the life cycle of a butterfly but there's more. The caterpillars are depicted and matched with the butterfly that they will become. Is that clear enough? Your child gets to see what each particular caterpillar looks like and match it to the butterfly they become aiding their real life recognition. I was told by my child that the butterfly I was looking at in a garden was a "tiger shallow tail", now that's worth your money.
- Life cycle of a butterfly - exquisite collages and different page sizes as well as interesting information about butterflies make this an outstanding gift.
- Spring and summer always bring the butterflies to mind. My daughter loves them year round. No one tells or illustrates a story like Lois Ehlert. The beautiful colors, the simple rhyming text, and the creative overlap page layout brings the butterfly's story to life. Includes several pages of butterfly information and identification. Great pairing with The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
- A wonderful book for children ages 4 - 8. I've purchase two copies; I'm getting ready to order another.
- I like the simple text in this book. The kids were able to understand what was going on. Eveyone enjoyed the story and pictures.
- Lois Ehlert has done it again with an excellent and simply worded book Great for Preschoolers. I use her books at my preschool as it captures their attention and isn't wordy. The youngest preschoolers have such a short attention span that this book is great. The drawings are bright and beautiful. The older preschoolers love looking at the artwork as well as it tells the story from pupa to wings. I love looking at them too.
- We adore this book. Beautiful photos and informative.
