Take a closer look at more than 90 remarkable bugs with expert author Dr Jess French.

Zoom in on the miniature world of insects with expert author Dr Jess French and discover some of the most amazing bugs on our planet.

From the perfectly camouflaged leaf insect that sways in the breeze to the ogre-faced spider that catches its prey in a net, this stunning collection showcases more than 90 of the world's most remarkable bugs. Detailed photography is paired with storybook descriptions that will captivate young readers, whether it's finding out about bees and beetles or stick insects and spiders.

Features on metamorphosis, eggs, camouflage, and other key topics explore the enormous variety of invertebrate adaptations. There is also a visual index packed with reference information, including the size and range of each species.

With foil on the cover, gilded edges, and a ribbon for keeping your place, An Anthology of Remarkable Bugs makes a beautiful gift for any child who is fascinated by insects and other bugs. It's ideal for young readers to explore by themselves or perfect for bedtime stories.
