Autorenporträt

Mary Ann Falter worked as an RN for 37 years. She is the mother of two married children and a grandmother of three nature-loving young grandchildren. She began her first butterfly garden in 2004 near Cincinnati, Ohio. Now being a grandma, it seemed natural to apply rhyming verse to tell the story of the Monarch butterfly life cycle and the nectar and host plants required to see it all happen. Planting native milkweed species and nectar plants is one way to help the monarchs survive and bring the enchantment of butterflies to your yard! In 2019, she registered her gardens with the Plant for Pollinators Challenge sponsored by the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden. This is her first children's book. It is a self-published, print on demand book. She was inspired to write it for young children, parents and grandparents with the hope that simple rhyming words and pictures will encourage the creation of butterfly gardens everywhere.
