So many really interesting tidbits of information. I really enjoyed this historical, current, and future discussion of butterflies blending the science with human history.

If you liked The Orchid Thief, or are a fan of the works of Mary Roach, you simply must read the Language of Butterflies. Run, don't walk, to buy this captivating and uproarious work of compelling nonfiction. Wendy Williams is my new auto-buy author.

I loved this! Of course, I do love butterflies. I learned lots from this, and thoroughly enjoyed the author's enthusiasm.
