Awesome Insects

Insects are amazing creatures and useful too. They form an important part of the food chain. They can pollinate flowers and break down dead plants and animals. They can even help in medical and scientific research and provide luxuries like honey and silk. The book answers questions like: when is an insect not an insect? what do insects do with all their legs? how many species are there? do insects see in colour? You will be amazed at how interesting insects can be, the next time you feel the urge to squash one...think again.
