Editorial Reviews

Enslow continues to "Zoom in," this time focusing on insects (previous series have centered on "Body Invaders," "Crime Scenes," and "Bizarre Bugs''). Stewart breaks down these bugs part by part, providing basic information on antennae, legs, wings, eyes, as well as on their life cycles and habitats, relying upon sparse text ideal for young readers and a colorful, eye-catching layout. Though quality of the photos varies, for the most part, these close-up images will engage children—particularly Grasshoppers and Dragonflies., School Library Journal August 2014
