Following a trail of ants to his own picnic lunch, a young boy pretends to be on a safari. Along the way he observes ant behavior and that of several other insects and invertebrates as well. At the end, several of the "bugs" are described in simple, factual sentences accompanied by pictures. The brightly colored cut- and torn-paper art highlights the "jungle" motif.
