Meet the world's most remarkable bugs - from the tiny fairy wasp to the giant weta - in this photo-packed bug encyclopedia for kids.

Did you know that there may be 5 million species of insects in the world? And that there are over a billion insects for every human on our planet?

With nearly 1,000 stunning images of insects from around the world, Our World in Pictures: Bugs, Butterflies, Beetles, and Bees takes a fun look at this gigantic group of tiny animals. This colourful bug book for kids aged 8-12 years is filled with galleries of stunning photographs that bring to life a huge variety of bugs - including insects that glow in the dark, the honeybees that pollinate our food, and bugs that live in our backyards.

This guide to the insect kingdom helps you:

  • See the unseen details of hairy legs and shimmering wings through galleries of high-definition photography.
  • Read your way through complex science broken down into bite-sized captions that keep even reluctant readers turning pages.
  • Understand nature and the vital jobs insects do to keep our planet alive and our food growing.
  • Trust the facts written and checked by experts, including well-known, award-winning entomologist Adam Hart
