Creepy Crawlies by Mandy Ross
This comprehensive introduction to creepy crawlies covers insects, spiders, centipedes, snails, slugs and worms. It has information on predators and prey, camouflage, parasites and the defensive weapons insects have. Details about habitat and lifestyle should help children identify the creepy crawlies they find, indoors and out, in the city or the country. There is a scorecard at the back of the book for recording findings. The book examines familiar insects and rarer species, and the colourful illustrations aim to help children distinguish the different types.
