In honor of the program we've selected our favorite bug books just for you!

This lushly illustrated book looks at the life cycle of the rusty-patched bumble bee queen and her colony.




The Butterfly House: Step Inside to Discover Over 100 Species of Nature's Most Beautiful Insects written by Katy Flint and illustrated by Alice Pattullo

The cover alone which looks like a stained glass window of butterflies and moths is enough reason to read this book. Inside the book there are descriptions of butterfly and moth species including: Swallowtail Butterflies, Yellow, Whites, and Sulphurs, Tiger Moths, and Saturnid Moths.




Not a Bean written by Claudia Guadalupe Martínez and illustrated by Laura González

Did you know that there is a bug inside of the Mexican Jumping Bean? Be sure to read this book to learn all about this fascinating creature.





How to Survive as a Firefly written by Kristen Foote and illustrated by Erica Salcedo

A loveable drill sergeant firefly is the narrator of this important manual for little fireflies. Find out why fireflies glow and more in this fun book.

If you like this book you'll love the other title in the series, How to Survive as a Shark.





A Beetle is Shy written by Dianna Hutts Aston and illustrated by Sylvia Long

Get to know all about the wonderful world of beetles in this vibrantly illustrated, jewel-colored book.








Spiders by Gail Gibbons

Gail Gibbons describes the amazing qualities of spiders. If you like this book be sure to look out for all of Gail Gibbons' non-fiction books about animals and nature. She writes in a very accessible way that even the youngest readers can follow.
