A Beetle Is Shy
Dianna Hutts Aston & Sylvia Long
A beetle is a digger...a runner...a hopper
This book is full of beautiful water color illustrations done by the very talented Sylvia Long.
Each of the beetles in the book is labeled so you know what kind it is. As I read it to my daughters we had to read the names of each and every beetle and they each picked their favorites.

If you are reading this to a younger child you can focus on the pictures and the large font, but if you are reading to a child that has a longer attention span you can also read the smaller font that provides greater detail about the beetles.
A beetle is helpful....or harmful.
I try to read books about bugs to my girls so they are not scared of them and see how useful they are to the world around us. This book shares the many cool things about bugs as well as information about their life cycle. The book also introduces many scientific words to children in a way they can understand.
We really enjoyed this book as a family and will be checking out more of this author's work.
Other books about bugs!!!
