I loved the facts about monarchs weaved into the story. I’m a big monarch nerd and still learned so much & recommended to several family members who love monarchs too!

I just borrowed this as an audiobook from Libby to check that my new library card was working. I ended up listening to the entire thing in 2 days and planning a pollinator rest stop for my balcony!

this book is a great example of why storytelling is so important in conservation education and outreach!

This book made me very nostalgic. Exactly around 20 years ago, four friends and I rode our bicycles across the state of Maharashtra after completing our 12th-grade exams. It was our expression of freedom. We were saying to the world that we are ready for you. I did not know much of the crisis of species extinction or climate change back then. My only crisis was to find a better future. This book helped me relate the adventure of cycling to the cause of conservation where I found myself working for the past 20 years.

This book is tremendously inspiring and it registers well on the adventure and conservation account equally. I have learned more about Monarch's and their migration through this book than conservation books. Huge congratulations to the author.
