Bugs, Bugs, Bugs! by Mary Reid

Summary: This book shows different body parts of bugs and what they are called. It had all different sorts of bugs.

Personal Reflection: This was a very cute book. I really liked all of the pictures and information that was in this book.

Classroom Extension:
1. This book could be used at a science station
2. This could be used for a visual image when teaching a lesson over bugs.
