A field guide to the small creatures around us

Moths, beetles, butterflies, bees, snails, crickets, worms and spiders all have a place in this illustrated tour of the bug world. The book opens with where bugs live and tips for spotting them, then groups its pages around particular kinds of creatures and shared topics: nighttime activity, baby bugs, life cycles, camouflage, display and bugs at home. That mix gives young readers two ways into the subject—by meeting individual groups and by noticing patterns across their lives. The conversational text pairs facts with colorful illustrations, making this a broad introduction to the variety of small animals children might encounter indoors or outdoors.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children aged 4–8 curious about insects, spiders and other small creatures
  • Young readers who enjoy illustrated nonfiction and learning how to spot bugs
  • Adults seeking a broad bug-themed book to explore with children

Book overview

From moths and beetles to worms and spiders, the world is crawling with fascinating bugs. The Big Book of Bugs is a delightful, fact-filled book for children to explore the vast array of creepy-crawlies that share our Earth.

In the first pages, children learn that bugs live nearly everywhere on the planet and gain tips on how to become a young bug spotter. As the book continues, the scenic compositions on each page are dedicated to key groups of bugs, including beetles, moths, butterflies, bees, snails, crickets, grasshoppers, worms, and spiders. Some spreads approach the world of bugs thematically, such as bugs that come out at night, baby bugs, and life cycles, how bugs hide and show off, and how some bugs love to live in your home. The conversational, funny text is also full of facts that will astonish children and adults, and accompanied by Yuval Zommer's colorful illustrations.
