Inhaltsangabe

<div>Most experts believe there are over 10 quintillion (10,000,000,000,000,000,000) individual insects digging, boring, flying, crawling, and excreting their way in and around the Earth. That&#8217;s about a billion <i>billion</i> bugs for every single person. And that&#8217;s not even counting their close relatives, the arachnids, which include spiders, lice, ticks, scorpions, and mites. So, if we humans really are that outnumbered, wouldn&#8217;t it be a good idea to learn a little more about our insect overlords? Helaine Becker&#8217;s latest activities guide does just that. Following the same format as her critically acclaimed <i>Science on the Loose,</i> which demystified science through fun and silly experiments, <i>The Insecto-Files</i> investigates the hidden lives of insects. It blends little-known facts about bugs with a wealth of easy-to-do activities that are as entertaining as they are educational. Packed with Becker&#8217;s trademark blend of energy, irreverence, and information, <i>The Insecto-Files</i> offers budding entomologists a gleeful guerilla approach to learning about the wonderful world of bugs.</div>
