Books with title Grasshoppers

Beastly behaviour comes in all sizes, as readers will discover as they explore the fascinating world of minibeasts. Each book focuses on a particular type, and includes information about several different species in the group. Each book looks at the anatomy, features, and behaviour of the minibeast, introducing information about habitats, reproduction, predators, and feeding along the way. Images are highly magnified and contoured to give the impression that the creatures are almost walking off the page. Internet search tips as well as boxed text on each spread introduce further information.

Every summer evening, three grasshoppers gather in a field to sing and make music. One night, they realize that autumn is near. It’s time to forget about making music and start gathering food for the winter. All goes well at first, but soon the three friends are squabbling, and the little group breaks up. Each grasshopper goes his separate way, competing to gather the most food, and before long a fierce war breaks out among them. The story of how the three grasshoppers find harmony and happiness by joining forces once more is a satisfying tale that celebrates true friendship. Giuliano Ferri’s enchanting illustrations add to the book’s charm.
