An A–Z guide to 26 true insects featuring Oliver Weiss’s signature collage art, blending humor and scientific facts to engage curious young entomologists
From the hardworking ant to the striped zebra butterfly, this isn’t your average alphabet picture book.

Each page is a vibrant discovery zone where children meet the tiny powerlifters of the forest and the adorable faces of the weevil kingdom through engaging fun facts and humorous insights.
