"Anthill: A Rhyming Short Story Coloring Book" is a delightful story that is 21 pages, measures 9" x 12", has a spiral binding, and is printed on high quality art paper, that is thick enough so you can color on both sides. This story is a charming account of how industrious ants meet the challenge of rebuilding their anthill every time it is knocked down! There is a jogger, a bike tire, and a frog, plus several other humorous contributing factors to the demise of the anthill, but the ants triumph in the end! It is amusing how these ants never give up, but persist until winter comes, and gives them a rest. The moral becomes quite apparent by the end. It is a story that appeals to all ages. It is a fun story for elementary school science time, especially if the class has an ant farm too.

Monarch Majesty is 25 pages, measures 9" x 12", has a spiral binding and is printed on high quality art paper that is thick enough so you can color on both sides. It contains highly detailed illustrations to compliment a gentle story with rhyming verse. The story is a description of observations made about a curious monarch that landed on my hand. The illustrations reflect the text, and includes educational images such as; showing groups of monarchs gathered together, a monarch migration map for North America, monarchs hiding under leaves for protection from rough weather, monarchs feeding on flower nectar, monarchs mating, the life cycle of the monarch butterfly, and finally the monarch flying up to other monarchs on a branch. It compares and contrasts monarchs with bees and moths, shows a monarch predator, and includes three different milkweed bugs. As research was done for the book, it was realized that moths spin cocoons, but butterflies pupate into a chrysalis, which is a fascinating difference. The images also include other milkweed and various butterflies. It is a wonderful book for elementary science class, especially if you are raising monarchs (or other butterflies) in the classroom. This story shows the majesty of the monarch butterfly in a story simple enough for the youngest child with images that are appealing to all ages, including adults.
