Review

"Visual Explorers: Insects and Spiders is chock-full of gorgeous, full-color, close-up photos of insects--a different look at some tiny creatures you may take for granted! In this book, you'll see a group of ants working together to transport a strawberry, jumping fleas that are barely visible to the naked eye, and a bee taking a long sip of nectar from a flower."

"These large-format paperbacks make for a visually enticing series."
