Fact: A flea can leap 12 inches (130 times its height). That’s like a person jumping over a skyscraper! Children learn all about the weird and wacky world of bugs and beetles in this beautifully designed interactive book. Read about bugs that look like aliens from outer space and beetles that are so brightly colored that they’re used for jewelry! Filled with the intricate illustrations of Maurice Pledger, young explorers get a chance to see these amazing creatures up close and understand how bugs work, what they eat, and where they live. Junior entomologists enjoy the fun extras also included in the book — puzzles, learn-to-draw games, a bug diary, 76 stickers, and a wild leaf-shaped pen featuring a dazzling dragonfly!
