"This beautifully illustrated, informative book explores everything you've ever wanted to know about bugs and where to find them. In this second book in the Nature All Around series, young readers will learn all about true bugs, complete and incomplete metamorphosis, bug habitats, migration and hibernation, a year in the life of a bug and more. A two-page spread helps kids identify the differences between insects and some common "insect impostors," like spiders and snails. Readers will even get to know the bugs in their communities with the help of a bug-watching questionnaire. End matter includes information about endangered bugs and how readers can help, a "Make an Insect Feeder" activity, glossary and index."--
