With How Can I Help, Tallamy accomplishes the near unthinkable – making conservation and change easy to understand and possible to enact in your own backyard. 

Answering questions like “what insects are in decline other than honey bees and butterflies,” and “how to caterpillars find host plants,” Tallamy provides quick and informative access to complicated issues facing the plants and animals in the country. His answers help redefine insects, birds, and bats from nuisance to vital part of the ecosystem for people who have all too often demonized them. 

I'll be recommending this to all of my gardening friends who love seeing butterflies, but hate sharing their plants with caterpillars.
