Inhaltsangabe:

Energetic text and enthusiastic illustrations combine to tell the tale of one gutsy little Damselfly, who, out of curiosity, attends a contest held in insect land where she sees an eye-opening parade of bombardier beetles, squirting stinkbugs, praying mantises, and other wacky characters--all vying for the title of "The Bugliest Bug." Jr Lib Guild.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Carol Diggory Shields thinks "insects are awesome! As I studied insects for THE BUGLIEST BUG, I realized that every invention people have come up with, from catapults to jet propulsion, had already been invented and used by bugs for millions of years. And that is why to be ‘bugly’ is the ultimate compliment." Carol Diggory Shields is a children’s librarian and lives in northern California with her family.

Scott Nash is the illustrator of many children's books, including OH, TUCKER! by Steven Kroll and MARTIAN ROCK and SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE DINOSAUR STOMP by Carol Diggory Shields. He lives with his wife on an island off the coast of Maine.
