Crawly! Hairy! Maybe a bit scary? Snails slime upside down. Eeek! Worms can somersault and butterflies smell like cake. YUM. Wait, don't eat them... Because bugs are truly BRILLIANT!

Matt Robertson’s quirky text and sweet yet hilarious illustrations show exactly why minibeasts can be truly awesome in their own unique way.

Do You Love Bugs? includes 14 hilarious globally inclusive, bug-tastic spreads, featuring worms, bees, beetles, dragonflies, butterflies, moths, grasshoppers, spiders, ants, snails, and stick insects. Find out how honey bees make their honey, why moths always fly around lamps, and how bombardier beetles protect themselves from hungry predators. There's something new to learn about each bug.

Did you know that stick insects can dance? Or that butterflies can smell like cake? And guess what? A grasshopper will spit on you if it gets angry!

So always be good to grasshoppers, give spiders a smile not a screech, and never get angry at ants! There are so many more fun facts to uncover about our tiny furry and slimy friends.

Winner of the Sainsbury's Children's Book Award for Learning & Development 2020.
