Excerpt from Life in the Insect World: Or, Conversations Upon Insects, Between an Aunt and Her Nieces
With the view of impressing these truths, and exciting an interest, which would induce them to inquire further, I commenced my little stories about insects for the benefit of my nieces, and the children of some of my friends. When the manuscript was nearly completed, I was induced to show it to two or three scientific friends, who encouraged me to give it a wider circulation. This I have concluded to do, although well aware of its many imperfections.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book opens up the wonders of the insect world to children and brings to life the fascinating creatures that creep, crawl, and fly all around us. Starting with some key distinctions between insects and other small creatures like spiders, the author then describes the lifecycle of an insect beginning as an egg, moving on to a life as a larva, then spending time as a pupa in a cocoon, before finally emerging as a fully-fledged imago with wings. Along the way, the book also discusses some of the incredible abilities that insects possess, such as their ability to communicate with each other, their impressive strength for their size, and the variety of ways they navigate the world while exploring the diversity of species that are represented in this group of animals. Filled with fun facts and interesting tidbits, this book is the perfect introduction to a lifelong love of insects.
