This book covers all the main topics about insects in eight chapters each broke up into several short informative sections. Each section consists of two pages full of color illustrations - both photographs and drawings, and several paragraphs of information. Each section is covered fairly briefly, this is an introductory text. The chapters cover: Bodywork, Homes, Lifestyles, On the move, Habitats, Lifecycles, Around people, and Record-breakers. In the Bodywork chapter each section covers an insect body part, as an example the eye section has a gigantic color illustration of a fly with its compound eyes. There are also two blown up images of a compound eye. There are also a very cool head on photograph of a damselfly and its compound eyes; and an African fly with its eyes on extended stalks. I think this book gives a very colorful and very well rounded (although necessarily brief) look at insects and their lives.

Seller: Sell Books, Elland, YORKS, United Kingdom
paperback. Condition: Good. Lloyd, Neil (illustrator). Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
