When we think of bugs and insects, they commonly are pesky but small. This big book features illustrations many times the size of the actual creature and that lets kids get a really good look. There is a spectacular double-page spread that depicts the rain forest home for thousands of bugs, most of which have never been seen. There are sections about beetles, ants and termites, wasps and bees, butterflies and moths, spiders, scorpions and centipedes. Within the pages, the particularly freaky and disgusting creatures are highlighted. Kids will relish the fact that people past and present enjoyed munching on certain kids of insects, which of course are a good source of protein.
