Runton, Andy. Owly & Wormy, Friends All Aflutter! 40 pgs. Atheneum, 2011) $15.99. Language-G; Violence-G; Sexual Content-G. Inside cover: “Olwy and Wormy want butterflies! But when they come home from Mrs. Raccoon’s Nursery with a milkweed plant that is supposed to attract some fluttering friends, what they get instead are chubby, green bugs!” This is a great wordless book. The illustrations are fun and interesting. Non readers can easily understand the storyline and share this sweet wordless story about the lifecycle of butterflies. This book could definitely be used in the classroom when studying butterflies, insects, etc. EL (K-3). ADVISABLE. Reviewer: SL
