“About Insects: A Guide for Children” by Cathryn Sill.  This book is one of a series of books that Cathryn Sill has done.  I love them because of the simple informative text and the captivating illustrations by John Sill.  These books are loved by primary children for the life like depiction in the illustrations. The illustrator clearly pictures the insects in life like situations that are captivating for all to look at.

I also believe these books can be helpful to middle grade students for the information contained.  I especially like the section in the back of the book that gives more detailed information and which could be used by parents when discussing the book or by older readers doing research on this topic.  These books are a great addition to any library.
