How I Become A Butterfly, and How I Can Fly

Loading...

What I Eat to Help Me Win

Loading...

The monarch is a caterpillar, and then it goes into a capsule. The caterpillar then starts to form into a butterfly. The monarch butterfly has to wait a couple hours before it can fly, because the liquid in the capsule is still on its wings.
The monarch butterfly is orange and has a black outline with black and white spots. It lives in any warm area. The monarch butterfly has two defense mechanisms to help it survive. One defense mechanism is that the monarch butterfly eats milkweed, so when a predator tries to eat it the butterfly tastes really bitter. Another defense mechanism is the monarch butterfly can dodge or fly away from a bird to confuse the bird.

The monarch butterfly eats milkweed, so when the predator tries to eat it, the butterfly tastes really bitter. When the predator eats the monarch butterfly it will spit it out and learn its lesson to not eat it again. On Seesaw it says “The bright yellow, white and black bands of the Monarch warns predators to not eat me.¨ 
This evidence shows how the Monarch Butterfly eats poisonous food so it can taste bitter and poisonous to its predators.This is important because this shows how the monarch butterfly is poisonous and acts towards its predators.

How I Fly From Place to Place

On Info Bites it says, “Others migrate (move) in huge swarms more than 2,000 miles (3,200 kilometres).“ This evidence supports how the Monarch groups fly together. 
Another piece of evidence is, “They even migrate across the Atlantic Ocean. They follow the same migration every year.“ This shows how the Monarchs fly to the same place each year to their habitat.

How I am Special

The color of the monarch warns predators to stay away. What is special about the monarch butterfly is that it has a twin that looks poisonous but is really not; it just has the color to survive. 
Another special thing about the monarch butterfly is its colors. The colors of the monarch means poison which are orange, black, white. Another special thing about the monarch is that when it's ready to get out of its capsule, it turns clear. Another special thing about the monarch is after it gets out of its capsule, it has to wait a couple of hours. Then when it's ready, it can fly.

Where I Live

This is where I live to be safe!

Hi! My name is Vanessa. I am currently 9 years old. I live in Boston. The reason I wrote this book is I want to let people learn about my favorite animal. I particularly enjoy writing about animals. When I am not writing, I enjoy playing with my friends and family. My dream is to be a book creator when I grow up because I get to write about people and animals.
