Crickets are fascinating insects, famous for the chirping songs male crickets produce by rubbing their wings together. This zoology title, filled with beautiful photos and factual life science text, examines crickets' physical features, global habitats, diets, and unique life cycle from egg to adult. Readers will learn how crickets use camouflage and jumping skills to avoid predators, and how people in some cultures eat crickets for their nutritional value. The book adds a glimpse into the role crickets play in folklore and symbolic storytelling. Part of Creative Education's popular Amazing Animals series, this book supports elementary-aged readers with captions, on-page definitions, additional resources, and an index.
