This book was very interesting and informative! I remember strongly disliking and being afraid of bugs as a child and killing them to get them away from me. As a gardener now, I love seeing spiders crawling through my garden or making webs in a basement corner (bye bye ants inside our house) and hate when I need to destroy their homes in order to rearrange things. My children love stopping on walks in order to move earthworms off of hot sidewalks back into the grass, before they fry on a hot day. They loved learning how earthworms make tunnels under our plants to help their roots receive nitrogen to help them grow. They love planting flashy flowers with me in the hopes that we can attract some bees and butterflies to help pollinate our plants. I love teaching them about how bugs are so important for our ecosystem, and they have a markedly different opinion about them than I did growing up. This book is an excellent starting point for helping adults (or older children and teens) understand why bugs are important to our world and how we can treat them with more kindness. We have a synergistic relationship and killing them is not the answer. I loved learning more about insects and how I can do my part. I also learned some new things that I am excited to pass on to my children.
