(4) K-3 Pebble Plus: Creepy Crawlers series. This series focuses on physical appearance, habitat, eating habits, and life cycle. Each book presents its limited information in easy-to-read text with hints of sensationalism ("Bam! Tarantulas use their legs to grab bugs"), while large, glossy color photographs of varying quality, some with well-placed labels, capture the drama. Vocabulary is suited to beginning readers; content is best for insect enthusiasts. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Creepy Crawlers titles: Cockroaches, Scorpions, and Tarantulas.
