The Making of a Scientist 
How did a book become a turning point in Richard Ebright’s life?
Richard had collected many species of butterflies by the time he reached second grade. He might have given up but at that time his mother gave him a book called ‘Travels of Monarch X’. This book told him how butterflies migrate to Central America. This amused his curiosity and at the end of the book readers were invited to help study butterfly migration. From hereon Richard continued to move forth in his quest for knowledge and became a great scientist in years to come.
