What to Focus On

  • His mother supported his learning from the beginning.
  • She bought scientific equipment and learning materials.
  • She raised him alone after his father died.

  • The Travels of Monarch X was a major turning point.
  • It described the migration of monarch butterflies to Central America.
  • The book opened the world of science to Ebright.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Richard Ebright became a scientist only because he liked butterflies.
