Description

The perfect gift for any young animal-lover, this beautifully illustrated spotter guide is an ideal introduction to the world of creepy crawlies! Illustrated in a bright, contemporary style, this is a modern guide to the most common minibeasts from the glorious glow-worm to the buzzy bumblebee, taking in such favourites as snails, slugs, worms and woodlice along the way. This information book for young children is packed with information and fun facts - everything you need to know to help you learn about and identify bugs and beasties. With key facts about size, habitat, diet and population, there are detailed descriptions of each creature and tips to help you spot them in your own park or garden. There is even a special, "Did you know?" section on each minibeast, which all young entomologists will love!
