Her books are well-loved by the students. Her presentation is engaging, educational, and the students loved it!!"</p><p>-Kathleen Malarczuk, Teacher-Librarian, St. Michael Catholic School, HWCDSB</em></p><p><br></p><p>"Children, parents, and teachers are bound to learn something new from Bigger Bigger Caterpillar, a non-fiction children's picture book. Mariposa is a female monarch butterfly that watches one of her eggs open and the caterpillar grows. She comes back every day to watch the caterpillar crawl through the four stages of the life cycle. Author and illustrator Barbara Fanson added several predators to enhance the story, but also showcase the obstacles a butterfly goes through each day. She has written an interesting and educational adventure of survival. The outstanding, full-color illustrations will attract children's attention, while the story keeps them entertained. Teachers will like the bonus illustration of the butterfly's life cycle, while librarians might prefer the photographic life cycle at the back of the book.</p><p><br></p><p>Bigger, Bigger Caterpillar is a fascinating and informational story of survival of a monarch butterfly from egg to larva (caterpillar) to pupa (chrysalis) to adult butterfly. Children will enjoy the story and watching the monarch escape predators without realizing the subtle educational hints. Author Barbara Fanson takes us on Mariposa's journey of discovery as she flutters through the four stages of the monarch butterfly. The realistic images invite us into the flowerbed to observe the caterpillar's growth. I believe public, school, and home libraries would benefit from having this book on their shelf. Each classroom would profit from this outstanding book, especially when students are learning about life cycles or predators. Interesting story + outstanding illustrations + educational benefits = awesome book."</p><p><em>-Kristen Van Kampen, Book Reviewer</em></p><br>
