Bugs A to Z

This was a great book for me to include in my insect unit at school. It has lots of clear pictures to help my kids visualize a lot better and great information about bugs! I highly recommend it to any early childhood or preschool teacher around!

The colorful photos of the various bugs brought an engaging introduction to world of insects. This can be used as a reference book of insects as well as a reinforcement of the alphabet.

Cute book! It's a good size for younger kids and is fairly sturdy for being a paperback. The pages are bright and colorful and feature fun insects with lots of variety and fascinating things to keep kids interested for a long time. Bought this for my two year old for a long car trip (along with Fun Express Insect Finger Puppets 12ct Toy and Darice 1029-03 16-Piece Plastic Insects, 2-Inch and he had so much fun matching up the insects in the sets with the insects in the book ("Look, mommy - they're the SAME!")The only thing that puzzles me is why there is what appears to be a lizard or chameleon tail coming out of the "Z" on the cover... but I'm willing to look past that because nobody's really that nitpicky and it's a good book.

This book is pretty good, and it is worth the price. It has beautiful photographs and definitely captures my 2 year old's attention. I would buy it again.The "downsides" of this book (for me) are that it doesn't have a lot of basic or general information about bugs, instead, it has specific information about ~50 bugs, from A to Z, exactly as it says in the title. Also, maybe it is just me, but I was a little annoyed that, e.g., "B" is butterfly, but O, P, Q and X are also exclusively butterflies. This occurs with a couple of insects, e.g., D for Dragonfly and E for Emperor Dragonfly. So, for a 2 year old, it is great, and I would recommend it. But if you have a kid who is 5 and interested in insects, this is probably too basic.

Perfect for my bug obsessed toddler. Just enough facts and photos on every page.

My two year old granddaughter loved this book the moment she saw it. There were some bugs she recognized and some that she wanted to know more about. Colorful close up photos of the creatures are a real plus. Each insect has a small but important fact about it. I like that it is not in depth because it gives Ruby the motivation to find out more by asking questions. It happens that this week at the Houston Childrens Museum she had an opportunity to catagorize mammals, insects and fish. She spent more time on the insects because they fascinated her, so this book came at the right time.The book was packaged with another one and they arrived on time and in excellent condition

My kids on my class loved it. Had a fun activity to name a bug that started with your first letter of their name. Each child had a different bug.

I bought this for a big unit I did with my five and two year old. They loved all the big pictures! And there was only a little information about each bug which is great for short attention spans. I also like the a-z part because my youngest is learning the alphabet. I would recommend this book for young children.

Fine Quality, studying bugs was never this interesting to kids

I completely understand that it’s quite hard to find butterflies that covers every single letter, but it became hard to read and explain to a child why there were so many variations of the same thing. There were at least EIGHT types of butterflies covered. I wouldn’t recommend this book to any child less than six who may not understand the concept, or even an older child who may find the explanations too bare (and hardly enough info to identify these outside)I gave two stars as I see an effort to make the facts interesting, but I guess it just wasn’t what I was expecting!

Livro com ilustrações e textos para aprendizagem das crianças. Bem adequado. Ideal para ensinar sobre os insetos na língua inglesa.

I love the design of this book. I bought it to read to my 2yr old who shows an interest in bugs. & My 6yr old found the facts very interesting.

I bought this for my granddaughter’s Christmas stocking and couldn’t wait! She loves it!
