I’ve had my eye on this book for a while as my children love bugs and bug hunting in the garden and my youngest seems really interested in the different species she finds. This is a great sized book, meaning the pages are clear and not overcrowded, resulting in a very accessible book for children. The book discusses the different families of insects and the definition of insects, introducing the correct, but age appropriate, jargon such as ‘thorax’. I love my children using correct terms and vocabulary so that’s a huge bonus point from me! Each insect is given a double spread so plenty of information is included without overcrowding or overwhelming the reader. The illustrations are beautiful and the use of drawings rather than photos makes this book stand out over others in the field, the details alone are captivating and make children want to know more about each insect. The use of illustrations has also inspired my children to have a go at painting and drawing their own insects and inspired the idea of keeping a nature journal over the school holidays. There are also little interactive sections encouraging the reader to look for different details on the pages, a great way to keep the attention of younger readers. We have read this book both as a bedtime book and a reference book when we have been hunting for bugs and the children ran off to read up on Praying Mantis when they found one in the garden. Our favourite pages are the ones about moths and night insects and the Ladybird page. I highly recommend this book as a beautiful, yet informative, addition to any child’s collection. Another bonus point for me is how friendly and accessible the author, Yuval Zommer seems. I saw photos on Twitter of him signing books at the Hay Book Festival and he is very responsive on social media. This has made my children see how ‘real’ writing books about things that inspire you is, it makes the whole process of observing, recording and creating more achievable.
