The middle-grade adaptation of Amy Stewart’s Wicked Bugs features profiles of the world’s scariest, deadliest, and grossest bugs, from the most painful hornet to flies that transmit deadly diseases to millipedes that stop traffic, to “bookworms” that devour libraries. With its featured bugs organized by categories that match the upper elementary science curriculum, this humorous, fascinating, and seriously icky book will have full-color illustrations throughout in a primary paperback edition with a simultaneous library edition.
