Hilarious and scientifically accurate, this Nature Diary gives readers a bug's-eye-view of the life cycle of a stinkbug.
Told in diary form, My Stinky Summer by S. Bug introduces readers to the stinkbug's life cycle and survival habits.
From the day he is born, S. Bug hears the same refrain--"Ew! Stinkbug!" The stinkbug's odor is powerful protection against from predators. Perhaps too powerful. Readers will also learn about the challenges that arise when an ecosystem is pushed off-balance.
Children will love poring over the bright, highly detailed illustrations and pondering ideas about ecosystems and nature.
The book includes a glossary and further information in the back of the book. Both art and text have been vetted for accuracy by an expert.
