Quick Look
A colourful, lively book to help children get to know the insect world better, including the one right there in their own garden.
Description

The Organic Bug Book is an intelligent and entertaining resource for children to get to know the insect world better, and become involved in what goes on in their own gardens and backyards.
In colourful pictures and simple text, Chris Korrow helps children and their parents understand the place of bugs in our world, how vital they are to our environment, and the issues with pesticides. Mainly he encourages children to spend time in their own gardens, watching what bugs do and how that affects our surroundings.
