Abstract
A 20-PAGE booklet on "Butterfly Migration" by Dr. C. B. Williams, in the "Young Britain" Educational Series of the Daily Mail, has recently come to hand. Simply but effectively written and attractively illustrated, it is a publication with an immediate appeal to young naturalists, if not to older ones also. The photographs of the living insects by S. Beaufoy add to its merits, and the chief facts relative to butterfly migration and what to look for in this field of natural history are clearly presented. Details regarding the various publications in the series are to be obtained from the Daily Mail School-Aid Department, New Carmelite House, London, E.C.4. The present booklet and many of the others are priced at 1s. ; some cost a little more, but are excellent value at this low figure.
