It's True! There are Bugs in Your Bed

by Heather Catchpole, Vanessa Woods, Craig Smith (Illustrator)

In this book, kids meet deadly dust-dwellers, toilet terrors, and things that squish, squirm, and slime. There's a hideous creature that can live for months without its head, a beetle that blasts its victims with toxic spray, and five-eyed monsters that vomit on their prey to turn them into mush. Kids love gross, and even the nastiest beasties are helpful in some way. About the It's True! series Gross! Creepy! Amazing! Kids will love it. This non-fiction series for older readers features wacky writing, funny cartoons, and remarkable photos that make each book as delightfully entertaining as it is informative. It's True!
