Publisher Description: It's hard to be Velma, the littlest Gratch, entering the first grade. That's because everyone has marvelous memories of her two older sisters, who were practically perfect first graders. Poor Velma--people can barely remember her name. But all that changes on a class trip to the magnificent Butterfly Conservatory--a place neither of her sisters has ever been. When a monarch roosts on Velma's finger and won't budge for days . . . well, no one will forget Velma ever again. Acclaimed and bestselling illustrator Kevin Hawkes and author Alan Madison celebrate everything butterfly--from migration to metamorphosis. Watch as Velma Gratch metamorphosizes from a timid first grader into a confident young scientist |
