How did a book become a turning point in Richard Ebright’s life?

Solution
Richard Ebright's interest in butterflies led him to collect all the twenty-five species of butterflies found around his home town when he was only second grade. His mother always supported him in his scientific endeavors. She got him a book called “The Travels of Moarch X’. This book was about the migration of monarch butterflies to Central America. This book opened the world of science to him and proved to be a turning point in his life. It invited the readers to help study butterfly migrations. It introduced him to Dr. Urquhart.
