The Bug Collector by Alex Griffiths
After George visits the Museum of Wildlife with Grandad, all he can think about is bugs! The very next day he goes out hunting, but he soon finds there are no more insects left in the garden, and the ones he has captured in jars don’t look very happy… George is about to learn exactly why bugs are so important. A brilliant, vibrant debut from Alex G Griffiths, featuring a wonderful grandfather-grandson relationship.
"The story is filled with action and movement and the pages are packed with detailI love the way George chases after his bugs with such a loping stride and the relationship between him and his grandfather is tender and convincing." * LoveReading4Kids *
"Properly informative and lovely to read." * Angels & Urchins *
