About This Book

Velma is the youngest Gratch sister and worries about starting first grade in the shadow of her memorable older siblings. When her class visits a butterfly conservatory, Velma discovers a passion for monarchs that helps her find her own identity - though one particular butterfly complicates things in unexpected ways.

Why We Love This

We love how Velma finds confidence by following her own curiosity - a beautiful reminder that every child shines in their own way.
