Together they plant a milkweed garden to feed and shelter the tiny creatures, then watch in amazement as the monarchs go through their life cycle before leaving on their long journey to Mexico. After all the butterflies have departed Maya finally speaks up about her own long journey to Canada and wishes the monarchs safety in their new home too.LSC
