What Lives in the Garden? John Woodward

Your garden is alive with minibeasts, all jostling for space among the jumbled mass of plants and flowers. Take a good look at your lawn, behind the bushes or peer into your pond - you'll be surprised at what's lurking there! The "What Lives" series introduces kids aged eight-12 to the fascinating domain of bugs and insects. The books are illustrated with magnified colour pictures and scanning electron micrographs and are written in a grippingly gruesome style. Fact boxes highlight important and extraordinary buggy facts from around the world, while games and quizzes test how much knowledge readers have absorbed.
