Description
A swarm of insects introduces readers to the joy of poetry. Witty nonfiction poems describe how insects capture prey, trick predators, attract mates, and have managed to survive for 400 million years. Scientifically accurate information further explains bug behavior. Eye-catching linoleum-cut illustrations practically crawl across the pages.
Includes notes that explain 19 poetic forms and stylistic techniques plus a glossary of entomological terms.
