Creepy Critters: A Pop-Up Book of Creatures That Jump, Crawl, and Fly

By Robin Boutell

With realistic illustrations and creepy fun facts about each bug, this colorful book will fascinate young readers as it brings six different bugs to life in 3-D. Readers will meet a hairy orange spider, a honeybee, a huge red cockroach, a blue beetle, a grasshopper, and a spotted ladybug. Along the way readers will discover all sorts of fascinating facts, including: there are eight million beetle species; grasshoppers are green because their blood contains no oxygen; ladybugs smell through their feet; and much more. Praise for Creepy Critters : "The art's bright colors and models' unusual scale will rivet audiences large or small. A quick buzz through buggy biology, equally suitable for reading or exhibition." -- Kirkus Reviews
