Harry the Poisonous Centipede by Lynne Reid Banks
Harry may be a poisonous centipede, but he's not very brave. He would be quite happy never to venture into the dangerous no-top-world above, where flying swoopers, furry biters, belly wrigglers and the dreaded Hoo-Mins live! But his best friend, George, is full of mischief, and Harry just cannot resist a dare.
Praise for Harry the Poisonous Centipede "A real ground level story that rockets along on hundreds of legs!Bug fans will love this" Kidstuff School Books RTE Guide
