Review by School Library Journal Review

K-Gr 2-These books start with the basics. For example, in Ladybugs readers learn that "Ladybugs are not all ladies." Each book covers the insect's appearance, body parts, movement, and life cycle. With short, declarative sentences, a large font, ample spacing, and color photos to support the text, these volumes are ideal for beginning readers. They could be used for reports, but important facts that children often look for are not included. None of the titles mentions the insects' geographical range or their predators, and only Bees and Ladybugs describe the insects' diets. In addition, Butterflies refers to a cocoon rather than the preferred term chrysalis. (c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
