"It’s a bug eat bug world, but the aphids are alright"
We get a snail’s eye view of the food chain in this brilliantly funny and informative cartoon-style examination of mini-beasts by the creator of the Super Happy Magic Forest books.
It’s a beautiful morning in the garden when Snail realises that something is eating bugs and decides to investigate. Who or what is treating bugs like a buffet? There are lots of suspects, from birds to a snake, to spiders, but none of them are completely to blame.
Snail learns lots but never does get justice, instead accepting that you can’t fight the food chain, just as well, given his location at the time…
Readers will learn and laugh in equal amounts, and a final page of ‘bugsplaining’ provides additional facts and a bug hunt activity page. As an introduction to the end-of-life cycle for bugs, this is unbeatable!
