A friendly first guide to thousands of insect species.

Learn all about the fascinating world of minibeasts – from bees, to butterflies, beetles, and more.

Grab your magnifying glass and head out to discover all about insects – their different types, body-structures, and behaviours. Filled with eye-catching images and bite-sized information, every young nature enthusiast will marvel at the mind-boggling facts about these adaptable creatures. The book covers the seven major insect groups and includes profiles for over 40 amazing insects, such as the stag beetle, monarch butterfly, and honey bee.

Dive into their brilliant world and learn how some insects blend in with their surroundings. Discover how some can survive in different environments, while others can defend themselves against predators using clever tactics. Explore the many ways in which insects help humans, and the crucial role they play in pollination and maintaining a balance in the ecosystem.

My Book of Bugs is a wonderful introduction to insects and their many incredible features. This book will not just teach children about fascinating insects, but will also make them understand and respect the environment.
