Description
How to be a friend to bees, bugs & butterflies--an interactive guide to pollinators and their role in our gardens.
This buzzing collection of exciting facts and activities will give you the inside knowledge on the power of pollination. Learn why pollination is so essential to the natural world through engaging projects and zany explanations--create characterful bug masks you can cut out and wear, play a game of Pollinator Pursuit (a fresh take on a traditional board game), and explore the menu at Predator Restaurant (who knew nematode nougat came in slug and vine weevil flavors?). By the end of Bees, Bugs & Butterflies you'll know how pollinators work and which creatures work with which flowers; you'll see how you can help pollinators by planting the right plants and creating safe homes for them; you'll learn about the amazing tricks plants play on insects; and you'll discover how to call nature's very own SOS team in to give our nectar-sipping buddies (and us) a helping hand.

This book is gorgeous and smart. I absolutely cannot wait to stock it. The page layout is fantastic, the pictures engaging and bright. The text is smart and humorous with facts strewn throughout and cute talk bubble dialogue from the bugs. It's really well done. As if the book weren't enough, there are activities and games. If that weren't enough, there are STICKERS! Really looking forward to the release of this one, and I'm glad he has other books to explore.
