Reviews:
“Beauty, humanity and science – all in one lovely package. This book was a big hit in my family – with the 9-year-old, the 48-year-old and the 83-year-old. It’s got everything: a gripping story, delightful illustrations and a raft of fascinating scientific information. The story has everything: joyful anticipation, panic, bargaining between predator and prey, and a clever moral.”
“Great for my 4th grader! The book was part parable and part science, and was a hit with my 4th grader. The storyline grabbed her, and she became interested in the insect science as we read it. Great illustrations. Highly recommended!”
“This book’s story engages. All the extra information is a bonus. I read this to my 8 year old grandson and he stayed engaged through the whole story. At the end, he said he liked the different font for the spider when the spider spoke and the red text when the butterfly spoke. He could read much of it.”
“For nature lovers of all ages. A wonderful book about relationships along with fun and amusing facts. A must read for inquisitive readers. Beautifully illustrated by the author.”
