2 out of 5 stars A Bit too brief   September 2, 2008
I bought this when my daughter started expressing interest in butterflies. The pictures are ok. There is so little information. It is rather dull. Not sure if there is anything better out there, but this book is rather uninspiring.


5 out of 5 stars Perfect book for young and old!   October 20, 2007
This book is awesome! Detailed pictures make it easy to identify your butterfly or moth and the descriptions are very informative. My boys, ages 6 and 9, love it and so do I!

3 out of 5 stars Typical Peterson   August 23, 2006

Typical of all the Peterson guides. This one has all the information one normally needs. It also is arranged in sometimes frustrating sections which require one to go to several sections for a complete profile of the subject matter. I simply do not want to spend the time going back and forth in the book when I simply want basic information on one insect.


3 out of 5 stars great pocket guide   March 20, 2006

A simple, easy to take along guide. The photos, and brief descriptions make it easy to identify the Butterflies and Moths you come across.
