Lisa Loucks-Christenson Announces the Hardcover Release of Trio of Monarchs and Tending Monarchs — A Monarch Butterfly Duology Available November 19, 2025
Rochester, MN — Award-winning author, illustrator, wildlife documentary filmmaker, and photojournalist Lisa Loucks-Christenson proudly announces the hardcover release of a unique monarch butterfly duology: Trio of Monarchs and Tending Monarchs. Both books launch simultaneously on November 19, 2025, available exclusively at Peacock Books & Wildlife Art in Rochester, Minnesota.
Trio of Monarchs documents the day-by-day transformation of three monarch butterflies—Dolly, who begins as an egg, and Dana and Durkey, who start as caterpillars—tracking their growth, chrysalis stage, and emergence as adult butterflies. The book features Lisa’s original photographs, field sketches, and detailed observational notes collected from over 40 years of monarch research and migration studies.
Tending Monarchs, Book 2 in the Valentine and Allie Adventures Series, is an original story with illustrations by Lisa Loucks-Christenson. It follows two young protagonists, Valentine and Allie, as they care for monarch butterflies, blending engaging narrative with wildlife education and art inspired by Lisa’s conservation work.
Both books are published in hardcover format only, sized 8.5" x 11", showcasing high-quality images and illustrations. There are no ebook or paperback editions planned.
Exclusive In-Store Release at Peacock Books & Wildlife Art
The collectible editions and signed signature art prints from both books will be sold exclusively at Peacock Books & Wildlife Art, a new wildlife-themed store and gallery opening on the release date, November 19, 2025, in Rochester, MN. This space will provide monarch enthusiasts, educators, and collectors direct access to Lisa’s latest works.
