About the Author

Her critically acclimated picture book, Moth: An Evolution Story, illustrated by Daniel Egnéus, is nominated for the Kate Greenaway Medal 2019 and was named book of the year by the Financial Times and Books for Keeps in the UK. In the US it was named a book of 2019 by The Horn Book and the National Science Teaching Association, and winner of the AAAS Subaru Prize for Excellence in Science Books. Isabel has also been shortlisted for the Royal Society Young People's Book Prize, the English 4-11 Picture Book Awards, and the Blue Peter Book Awards.



Lou Baker Smith is a freelance illustrator and designer, working in book publishing and packaging design. Her work is diverse in subject matter and technique, the common thread that runs through it is a love of colour, textures and layers. --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.

Review

★ "Labeled art that is both stylized and anatomically correct―and that even has a somewhat humorous appeal―complements the conversational text. Excellent organization of material includes ample introduction to Linnaean classification in both text and glossary (under “order (scientific)”), allowing for easy browsing....Kudos for explaining monarch and painted lady butterflies’ generational migrations as akin to a relay race. Fun, inspiring, and well researched."—Kirkus Reviews, starred review --This text refers to an alternate kindle_edition edition.
