But how much do you know of the curious lives they lead before they win their wings? Follow the growth of these fascinating insects from tiny egg to hungry caterpillar; from unseeing pupa to brilliant butterfly. Learn how a butterfly lives and feeds, and some of the clever tactics it uses to outwit its enemies. Her absorbing information and extraordinarily sharp close-up and colourful photography...make so much that is hidden all around us accessible and enthralling. Jackie Hammerton, Herald Sun
