<p><strong>?A work of art. In each of the pages, you will feel the flow of a powerful energy which will murmur to each of your cells that it is time to come out of hiding, to open the windows, to breathe freely, to dress colorfully... to fly.??Laura Esquivel, author of <em>Like Water for Chocolate</em></strong></p><p>An illustrated fable for all ages about a Mexican-American girl who transforms into a monarch butterfly and undertakes the great migration to Mexico, <em>Monarca</em> braids together the values of heritage, ecology, and personal transformation.</p><p>On her thirteenth birthday, Inés receives a mysterious necklace from her abuela in Mexico that turns her into a monarch butterfly?the fulfilment of a prophecy linking Inés' destiny to her family's legacy and the butterflies' survival.</p><p>The adventure continues as Inés joins the monarchs on their long journey south to the butterfly sanctuary in Mexico?an odyssey that has become increasingly perilous due to human activity. Together, the swarm travels from the northeast to the swamps of Louisiana to the pine-filled mountain tops of the western Sierra Madre, finally alighting at the Sierra Chincua sanctuary. On this wondrous journey in the vein of <em>Jonathan Livingston Seagull </em>and <em>The Little Prince</em>, Inés discovers the connections between all living beings, and the urgent need to protect the monarchs' migration and habitats.</p><p>Divided into four chapters to mirror the four stages in a monarch's life?egg, larva, pupa and butterfly?<em>Monarca </em>blends Mexican folklore, environmentalism, and magical realism in an enchanting novella. Illustrated with stunning full-color drawings by Leopoldo Gout, this book will inspire readers to protect and cherish the sacred natural world around them.</p>
