This large beautiful book encourages children’s engagement with the small creatures in our environment and is great for children to share and explore. Readers are asked to search for details in the illustrations and this questioning approach extends to observing bugs in real life. Following a general introduction to bugs and spotting them, each carefully designed spread is devoted to a different creature, beginning with beetles and ending with spiders. The final pages include ideas for making bugs welcome and vocabulary that will convert children into bug experts.
