Author Description

<b>This book brings you up close and personal with eight different bug species in astounding motion.</b><br> <br> <br> <br> Another addition to the bestselling Photicular series with over 1.3 million books in print, <i>Bugs</i> zooms into the tiny world of insects. Watch a grasshopper diving for its pray, a house fly rubbing its fore legs, a tarantula skittering across the floor, a leaf-cutter ant hauling a giant leaf up a branch, a dung beetle pushing its ball up a hill, a close-up of a damselfly's enormous eyes, and more. BUGS offers readers an up-close look at bugs in motion and a window into how they move and behave. Science writer Mara Grunbaum provides an opening essay that delves into the fascinating behavior of these wonderful creatures as well as a detailed profile accompanying each image.
