(3) K-3 Illustrated by Jonny Lambert. This illustrated life cycle of a walking stick introduces the insect's "tricks," such as camouflage and limb regeneration. In addition to the read-aloud-perfect main narrative (onomatopoeic phrases and the titular refrain are sprinkled throughout in a large font), blurbs on each spread provide more in-depth scientific explanations for budding entomologists. Pattern-rich full-spread illustrations extend the text and provide visual cues for new readers.
