(4) K-3 Creepy Creatures series. Brief texts address basic questions about the title creatures: How big are they? What do they eat? Where do they live? The factual information is useful but incomplete. Extreme close-up photos will leave insect and arachnid fans enthralled. Each book includes a very simple craft or project (e.g., rub a stick over a comb's teeth to replicate crickets' songs). Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Creepy Creatures titles: Centipedes, Crickets, Mantises, and Spiders.
