Fascinated by small things, curious and sometimes fearful, leaning about, and learning the names of insects is great fun for young children. So, names first, and then adult-told stories made from the facts provided on these 47 full color flash cards.
Meet South America's Hercules Beetle, as big as a dollar bill and the strongest creature on earth, able to lift 850 times its body weight. (That's like a 100-pound person lifting four school buses!) And Treehoppers and Leafhoppers, centipedes and millipedes, and twelve thousand varieties of ant.
Full-color photographs that reveal their subjects' shimmery wings, iridescent shells, vivid hues, and bold shapes in astonishing detail. Every card includes a detailed description, habitat and scientific name, lore, and size, as well as sidebars covering topics such as the fly's ability to walk upside-down and how bees make honey.
