This bright and lively board book introduces young children to a range of minibeasts and their special characteristics. Loes Botman's colorful and detailed illustrations bring the different insects -- including a butterfly, ladybug, beetle, bee and dragonfly -- vividly to life, and the simple concepts and words make these books perfect for exploring with young children.
This simple introduction to bugs features bright colors in its attractive illustrations. I particularly liked the fact that there is only one word on each page and that the author uses great action verbs such as scurry, scuttle, and wiggle. After all, isn't that what many bugs do? While it might be helpful to have additional information about each of the critters depicted here, this is, after all, a board book and merely a place to start as youngsters start exploring the natural world.
A lovely board book to introduce the very very young to bugs and suchlike – they all get their turn to tell us one thing about themselves, so the spider spins, the butterfly does this, the that does the other and so on. You have to pity the one that can only boast of flying, mind. Pretty stuff, and as of April 2024 due to be in a box set of some of this author's very similar titles. 9781782508564 will contain the following, which all get recommended:
