The Secret Life of Bugs

Book excerpt: The Secret Life of Bugs is a collection of delightful stories and engaging facts, which imparts a love of bugs and nature on the next generation, inspiring them to look after the world around them. Let Luna a friendly ladybug lead you through this beautiful first guide to bug life. Learn about bug habitats--who lives where, teeny tiny bugs (featherwing beetles) to the largest of critters (giant stick insect and goliath beetles). Find out the amazing things that bugs can do, like flying high or disguising themselves. Read magical creepy crawlie folklore stories from around the planet, too. The ladybug has learnt much on her travels and will be a great guide for young readers, perhaps inspiring them to develop a lifelong love of bugs. Following on from The Secret of Trees, The Secret Life of Bees, The Secret Life of Birds and The Secret Life of Oceans, Bugs is the next book in the series. Sumptuous and detailed illustrations have pride of place in this magical book that mixes natural history with a splash of fantasy, creating a book to be pored over time and again.
