Detailed art in soft colors fills these pages, with a magnified section zooming in on each of the fourteen featured insects in its natural habitat. The text introduces salient characteristics of each "bug," and a final chart consolidates and augments this information, with a note about what entomologists consider true bugs. The selection of insects seems a bit random, but the information is sound. Reading list.
