REVIEW
A wonderful book filled with facts about familiar insects as discovered by a caterpillar. The story is accompanied by close-up photographs. What I really liked is that it is not too wordy – it will keep the attention of children it’s geared for. At the end of the book are activities designed for 3-5 year olds. Good size book with sturdy pages.
