Caterpillars, Bugs and Butterflies: Take-Along Guide

livret anglophone broché souple moyen format carré ancien (1996) consacré à quelques espèces d'insectes nord-américaines courantes (y compris des papillons); après une brève introduction une quinzaine de double-pages décrivent les aspects principaux de l'histoire naturelle de chaque espèce (une vingtaine en tout) ; illustrations couleurs accompagnées d'un texte abordable pour de jeunes lecteurs; conseils pratiques pour trouver plus facilement l'espèce; pas de carte de distribution; à réserver aux jeunes ou aux néophytes (en expliquant que ce sont des espèces qu'on ne voit pas en europe); les naturalistes confirmés trouveront cet ouvrage beaucoup trop superficiel

My grandson loves this book. It came just in time, he will be going to his grandfathers cottage soon and will come in handy, especially with the ruler on the back cover.

Beautiful illustrations, lots of information and can be used as an insect field guide for kids. It's geared more towards the over 5 kids - the information is lost on the little ones - but is great to have in a children's library. For toddlers and beginner book lovers, try National Geographic's Little Kids First Big Book of Bugs. It's more of a picture book that will hold their attention better. This book is a great one to move them into later, as they're attention span grows.

Great book for budding entomologists. This book is full of facts, wonderful pictures and projects. There are places to journal things so it's great for kids to really learn about and study different bugs, butterflies, etc. My kids are obsessed with anything entomology right now, so this is a great way for them to capture what they are learning in a book/journal. We also have other books from this same company and love those as well. This is a great series. We love that it's not just about reading facts and stories, but also includes projects, journal pages, etc.

Great pictures and lots of information.
