What kind of insect would make its home in a pile of dung? Does a female praying mantis really eat its mate? Do house flies spit on your food? Author Margaret J. Anderson answers all of these questions in BUGGED-OUT INSECTS as she explores the weird behavior, habits, and characteristics of insects. There are millions of different kinds of insects in the world, and many of them do things so bizarre you'll have to read it to believe it!

      Gr 5-9-Aimed at reluctant readers, these titles are sure to disgust and delight in equal measure. The attention-getting topics are explored using gory facts and stomach-turning details and range from fun to terrifying, depending on the topic. If readers can stomach the army ants and potato-sized termite queen found in Insects, then it will be the potential future scenarios in Space that will keep them up at night. All of the titles will pique interest and get kids lining up at the reference desk looking for more. The text is complemented by illustrations and magnified photos of things that you would hope never to see.

      If readers ignore the gimmicky series title, dripping purple caption boxes, and descriptors such as ugly, they'll find this revised book contains an informative text and engaging photographs. Five chapters cover different types of insects, behaviors, characteristics, life cycles, and defenses. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
