Children's Literature -
A brilliantly designed, 10- x 14-inch, volume which takes full advantage of its size to present large illustrations and traceable masks of ants, flies, butterflies and other insect fliers, farmers, builders and predators alongside practical activities for insect inspectors. Mr. Booth also introduces and asks readers to join the "Greenpatch Kids," an alliance of environmentally concerned youngsters.Children's Literature -
Not for the faint of heart, the extremely detailed illustrations in this book enlarge common insects to massive proportions. Cut out masks can transform the reader into a giant carpenter ant, housefly, or other critters. Activities outlined include catching crickets, making flies dance, and investigating plant galls. Greenpatch Kids spotlighted in this volume include a class working to save the Karner blue butterfly, a boy who raises ant lions, and a young beekeeper.Book Details
