Synopsis: Why do fireflies flash? How do water striders walk on water? There are over a million known species of bugs, each with their own magical and strange behaviors. The newly-update Bug Book and Bottle provides kids with all the tools they need to become expert bug catchers and observers. Anchoring the kit is Entomologist Hugh Danks revised paperback guide with a simple, user-friendly format. Species are divided by habitat--pond, forest, ground, leaves, field, and flower. Each entry is then broken down by appearance, food, and other interesting facts. New to this edition is a section of hands-on activities, including projects devised to teach children how to handle bugs properly, how to turn household objects into real bug catchers, and how to collect scientific data. The kit includes a bug journal for recording new discoveries; a plastic magnifying glass; and a fold-out Bug Identification Chart.
