5.0

This is a cute little informative book on arthropods, with focus on insects (but also including things like spiders, ticks, and pillbugs). I really like this as a coloring book, as many times "bugs" are seen as gross or pests, when in reality they live with us during our daily lives and many are helpful to us. I love insects, and I think as a child I'd have appreciated finding a coloring book that didn't only focus on "cute" things for me - but rather, on things people would find "displeasing" with informative information to learn.

As with the bird coloring book, my biggest complain is the recycling of the images, where I feel more variety would have been nicer to color. However, I think this would be a fun coloring book for any child, and could help even ones who don't like all sorts of creepy crawlies to see them in another light.

Thank you to the author, Netgally, and Zeitgeist for providing this copy for free in exchange for an honest review.
