[Kinsley Troutman · Rating 5 out of 5]

Insects is an informational text that you would read with kindergarten, first and second graders. National Geographic did an amazing job with photographs in this book, they are amazing. Each photograph is zoomed-in so the reader can look at all the different Insects and what makes them special.
