Both brilliantly written and illustrated, these books take the imaginative step of putting the reader in the position of a bug. "Are you a Bee?" is surprisingly comprehensive for a book whose target audience is probably 5-7 year olds. As someone who has always had an interest in wildlife, even I learned some things from this book. My six year old will happily read it by herself - she was especially interested in the workers (girls) having so much to do including the feeding of greedy bee grubs and the comment about drones not doing much! Her brother, a pre-schooler, LOVES the pictures. It's great - every school/library should have this book!
