“I was just out photographing monarchs this morning and after enjoying thousands of them over these last 12 years, I must say that Airplanes In The Garden was an enjoyable read. Both you and Cathy Quiel provided me with a window to approach how an inquisitive child experiences these beautiful butterflies. Monarchs fly with elegance and grace and in your book Bonnie admired that in Sergio and Stanley.
I was impressed with the rich background information that you shared once Sergio and Stanley were safely off to their adventures.”

“Thumbs up! A delightful story with splendid illustrations, sure to delight and intrigue all young monarch
lovers.”
— Dr. Robert Michael Pyle, author of Chasing Monarchs: Migrating with the Butterflies of Passage
“… a story that will entertain while it educates children about the magic and mysterious world of monarch
butterflies. Creating awareness and empathy at an early age is our best bet for the protection of these fragile
wonders of nature.”
— Nick de Pencier, Director, PBS’s NOVA: “The Incredible Journey of the Butterflies”
