From a humble earthworm wriggling in the soil, to a spider spinning its strong, sticky web, to an enchanting moth taking flight in the moonlight, this book explores the much beloved non-fiction subject of bugs! Readers will meet a cast of familiar creepy crawlies as well as learn about bug habitats, bodies, diets, and behaviors. Backyard Bugs is a gentle introduction to a fascinating world that readers can go on to explore in their own yards and neighborhoods after reading the book. The educational, bite-sized facts and fun shine-through mechanism work together to create an adventure on every page.
"Sure to spark curiosity and wonder, this is a very creative book that involves young children in engaging with the natural world. A wonderful selection for a home library or for a small group in a classroom setting."
-- ​Children’s Literature Comprehensive Database 

"The educational, bite-sized facts and fun shine-through mechanism work together to create an adventure on every page.​"
-- SMS Nonfiction Book Reviews 

"[A] great STEM storytime book and adds a fun, interactive element to read-alouds. Letting readers explore the books for solo or paired reading gives them a chance to discover the hidden pictures for themselves. A good suggestion for elementary nonfiction collections."
