National Geographic Kids Look and Learn: Bugs (Look & Learn)

Such a disappointing book. I has only 5 pages and the lady bug takes up two of the pages. If your kid is a bug enthusiast save your money this has nothing to show him.

I really like this book it includes: ladybug, bumblebee, praying mantis, firefly and (monarch) butterfly. So a good selection of bugs a small child is likely to experience in their yard or park in North America. For the photo board book aged children I really prefer that they discuss vocabulary that the child will be able to use to describe the world around them so I appreciate that most kids will see most of these bugs fairly easily and frequently. I did question the praying mantis since I see them much less frequently than the other bugs in the book but my husband said it is an exciting bug when kids do see it so he supports the choice--I think a fly or mosquito might have been a somewhat more useful choice as far as vocabulary our son could use most often. I liked that they did say the butterfly was a monarch but typically used butterfly so if a child lives where other butterflies are more common they learned the more general term. I think fireflies are less common in some regions but they are so magical as a small child that I think it is a good choice.

More advanced than recommended.

Good book for babies. Nice pictures. I learned a lot even though the book is for my kid.

For my 18 month old grand daughter, the bright colors and large pictures were very exciting. She learned the word “ bug”

Our 3 yr old grandson was leery of bugs. This helped him become fascinated & comfortable with them while helping him learn to identify these. Very nice and very durable.

This is a good book, my two year old daughter enjoys it. The National Geographic book series is very good with lots of great pictures and a few teaching points and scientific facts. I will buy more books like this for sure.

I love these books for my 2 year old.. Interesting and great pictures

The copy I received was heavily used--bent, teeth marks, sticky and well used. Usable but definitely not new.

Sturdy enough for 19 month old. He loved learning about the insects and looking for them outside. I love the real pictures and facts.
