I love board books that have various levels of depth. This is one of those. You can read just the alphabet portion or dive into the details about each bug. Mrs. Peanuckle also does a nice job with her bug choices and doesn't include "gross" bugs.

All of the Mrs. Peanuckle books I've read so far have been fantastic. Chock full of facts, great typography, bright colors and Jessie Ford has managed to simultaneously be true to a bugs anatomy (as far as an untrained eye can tell) while simultaneously making over 90% of them actually cute!

I love Mrs. Peanuckle's books! First off, all of the illustrations, colors, and fonts are so fun! The book is gorgeous. Second, this book has a ton of great facts and teaches you about a lot of different bugs! I learned quite a few new things from it. The only reason I'm not rating this book higher is because I personally don't love bugs and wouldn't want to read about them over and over, though this book might change that. ;)
