From the Publisher:

Discover bugs on a summer walk with Grammy.

Ramble through the woods, as you join Grammy and her favorite grandkids on a summer walk. Beautiful illustrations and clever rhymes will guide readers as they learn to identify twenty-six different bugs, from grasshoppers to moths, snails to katydids. At day’s end, discover how to create a caterpillar habitat; observe over time as your caterpillar turns into a beautiful butterfly you can then release on your next summer walk.

Leah’s Thoughts:

This is a great one to read before heading outside or to bring along on a nature walk. It introduces a wide range of summer plants and flowers, but in a way that remains fun and easy to follow for younger children. My boys liked spotting things they recognized, and it made our next walk feel a little more like an adventure.
