The Biggest Bug Book

Big insects are rare, and even more rarely seen. In their natural habitats - in the desert, or high up in a tree - they may seem small and ordinary. But if you were to look at these enormous insects compared to everyday objects, you would discover how amazing they are. This book contains 13 insects, from the Goliath beetle, which children in Africa keep as pets, to the praying mantis, which Japanese people keep on tiny leads in their gardens to catch mosquitoes.
