Bigger is not always better. Sometimes the smallest of creatures can have the biggest impact … even with dung!

Explore the fascinating and incredibly important role that tiny dung beetles play in our environment. From pushing dung balls that can weigh up to 50 times more than they do, to recycling nutrients in our soil, these beetles are really quite exceptional!

Written and illustrated by the award-winning Sandra Severgnini, Dung Beetle on a Roll is a delightful encounter with these small but important beetles.

Reading level varies from child to child, but we recommend this book for ages 5 to 9.
