Moths
by Dorothy Childs Hogner Author, Nils Hogner Illustrator
Mrs. Hogner describes moths on the outside and the inside, relates how they lay their eggs and how the caterpillars spin their cocoons. One section of the book tells how to collect cocoons and keep them until the moth emerges. The different moth families are listed and described, with careful illustrations by Mils Hogner. Clearly written and scientifically accurate, "Moths" will delight and inform the young naturalist.
