PBS Kids: Look and Learn Insects

A simple, fully-illustrated introduction to insects comes packaged with a magnifier jar to encourage kids to explore and better understand the natural world around them.

The clear, easy-to-follow reference is designed for a young audience with large pictures and minimal text highlighting the most interesting things to notice about the most common insects in North America–butterflies, beetles, and other fascinating critters easily spotted in backyards or parks. Packaged with a magnifier jar, the book also highlights features and behaviors children can look for if they have the chance to observe an insect up-close. A portable checklist (to help explorers identify the common insects they'll encounter on a walk outside), and an interactive poster complete the package. An exciting resource for budding naturalists, this kit will get children (ages 4 and up) excited about experiencing nature up-close.
