These two books are sure to capture the imaginations of young children! 

In Butterfly, Butterfly Lucy sees a beautiful butterfly in the garden, along with a bright green beetle, a brilliant blue dragonfly, some red ladybugs, and many more flying and crawling things. But when will the radiant butterfly appear again? Petr Horácek uses his trademark saturated hues and simple shapes to create an enticing view of the world of colors -- and a peekaboo look at the slow-paced life abuzz in the backyard garden.

In Sue Heap's Four Friends in the Garden, Mary Clare, Rachel the rabbit, Seymour the sheep, and Florentina the big flowery bear are all in the garden. Suddenly a butterfly lands on Florentina’s foot, and she can’t wait to show the others. But off it flies, and around and around they run, trying to catch a glimpse of it. Could it be that sitting quietly might lead to better results?
