Reviews / Votes
'Whilst the bold, graphic illustrations will delight young readers, the scientific but child-friendly information about bug life... will provide older readers with an excellent grounding in the awe-inspiring world of insects. The perfect book to dip in and out of at leisure or pore over for hours'- Library Girl and Book Boy -
