Sunshyne Butterfly and Moonlyght Moth are close cousins who like flying together. They fly at anytime and anywhere. Nevertheless, plastics and toxic chemicals affect the environment; therefore, making it hard for most insects to go about their business. When the two cousins gained their newly formed wings, they seemed to have their rhythm of flying mixed up, and they feel it! Something is not right! They both start searching for a rhythm that will work best for each of them. Should Sunshyne Butterfly and Moonlyght Moth fly at different intervals or different times of the day? Better still, will they find their rhythm?

Growing up, I used to be captivated by the sight of moths, mostly at night. I would watch as they flew in a circular motion around a light source until they got exhausted. During the day, I’d chase butterflies until I got a hold of one. SunshineButterfly and Moonlight Moth by Rochelle Rabouin rekindled my memories as a child and had me smiling, sometimes even chuckling.

I have read many children’s books but not as distinctive as this one. It has both science and fun in it. I liked the science part is explained in a way that even a child can comprehend. The colorful illustrations can assist a child to distinguish between the two insects.

What moved me most was how Rochelle explained metamorphosis to kids. With picturesque illustrations of the four stages of growth, children will gain immensely from the story. The book’s ending contains questions that young ones should answer to gauge whether they’ve understood the logic behind butterflies and moths.

There were neither grammatical errors nor typos, so the work is professionally edited. I give this book 4 out of 4 stars. I do so because I detected nothing to dislike. For anyone looking for a present to gift a child, this book would prove exceptional. I recommend it to children between ages 6 to 10 years, more so those who enjoy science.

This book sounds so whimsical which is lovely! Hopefully, it also raises a generation of environmentalists.

I don't like moths, but I like butterflies. This sounds like a sweet story. It sounds both educational and fun.
