Children are about to discover that in the world of insects, almost anything is possible! Some of these tiny creatures jump 20 times the length of their bodies. Others fly through the air at more than 35 miles per hour (56 kph). Some insects can kill people. Others just want to drink their blood.

In this beautifully designed introduction to insects, large, eye-popping photos and clear, grade-appropriate text will engage emergent readers as they learn about the natural habitat, physical characteristics, diet, and behavior of these unique invertebrates.
