Synopsis
Crawling with full-color, larger-than-life photographs, Backyard Bugs depicts the amazing bugs we see around us every day in an altogether new light. From common pill bugs to exotic-looking dragonflies, tiny orange mites to green fanged spiders, Robin Kittrell Laughlin's vivid photographs capture the kaleidoscopic colors, fascinating details, and amazing facial expressions (yes, expressions) of these underappreciated creatures. With a witty homage to bugs by best selling author Sue Hubbell, scientific information about the bugs and their habitats, amusing literary quotes, and a glossary of bug terminology, Backyard Bugs is sure to capture the imagination of nature lovers, gardeners, and kids all ages.

Review
In my experience, youngsters who have not absorbed the current popular American notion that bugs are bad are fascinated with them. And so are adults who have shaken free from that notion. -- from the Foreword by Sue Hubbell
From the Author
People of all ages have enjoyed reading my book.
The photographs are the main reason that people buy my book. It makes a great gift for an adult, a miniature coffee table book, or a fine gift for a child. It was written for all ages. I am always thrilled when an adult tells me they READ it and enjoyed the writing. There is a section of purely scientific facts from which a student of just about any age could learn and write about bugs.
