Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature
These bugs crawl, creep, fly, sting, itch, bite, chew, and jump. They are fat, skinny, graceful, big, and tiny. There are dragonflies, spiders, termites, lice, apple worms, and gnats. They all have one thing in common—they are celebrated in delightful, refreshing, and often humorous poems. The opening poem that ends with "I've always said / that bugs are pests, / but bugs who read / are welcome guests" sets the tone for all that follows. The ink drawings are the perfect accompaniment, and its small size allows it to easily slip into a pocket while on a nature walk to woo the bugs with lyrical poems all their own.

School Library Journal

PreS-Gr 3
Like the open jar depicted on the blue cover, this compact volume attempts to capture a variety of bugs for closer examination. The 40 small poems feature everything from a louse to a chocolate-covered grasshopper. Playful black-and-white cartoon illustrations and page layouts punch up the poetry's delicate silliness. While the book's small size seems intended for individual reading, the selections themselves work best shared aloud. Several of them are intended for two voices or a chorus. Pair this lively title with Paul Fleischman's glorious Joyful Noise (HarperCollins, 1988).
