What a wonderful bug book! Particularly for a mother who homeschools and has children that are enamored with creepy crawlies!
The graphics are amazing—they're vibrant, interesting, and fitting! This book's layout is incredibly thoughtful and well-organized, and its content is easily readable. Undoubtedly, this is a book we will cherish and consult frequently in our studies!

Cute. Quirky. Informative.

Loved this book, the illustrations are amazing, funny, quirky, adorable!

This really keeps the kiddos (and adults) interested throughout with the fun names like “garbage guzzlers” -black soldier fly and “fantastic farmers” -Ant. It’s also written as the insects POV so that really kept the kiddos throughly interested!

All I could think about was “how cool would this be as a kids cartoon show?” The colorful pages and bite sized info were so entertaining, I’m 23 years old but let me tell you something, I never knew half of the amazing things those insects offer us. I would definitely still kill cockroaches.

I want to extend my thanks to Quarto Publishing Group-Wide Eyed Editions for generously sending me a copy of this book for review.

The whimsical and sometimes silly illustrations in this book captivated my child right from the start.

I thoroughly enjoyed the wealth of information presented, highlighting the various roles each insect plays and sharing interesting facts about them. This blend of education and entertainment made for a delightful and enlightening reading experience that both my child and I truly appreciated.

Colourful children’s book about insects. Like many invertebrates, insects aren’t necessarily our favourite animals. Yuck, go away or ahh, comes to mind. Or a quick squash with a foot. But for some they are fascinating, there are so many unique often interesting species, and ultimately our world wouldn’t function without them. Here is a book that children can read, where the insects, presented as colourful drawings, are not so scary, but insects lives and roles are presented for youngsters to think about and learn. Maybe insects really get an undeserved bad name. Thank you to Quarto Publishing Group - Wide Eyed Editions and NetGalley for the ARC. The views expressed are all mine, freely given.

Fun, colorful illustrations reminiscent of Some Bugs by Angela Diterlizzi and Brendan Wentzel. (High praise)
This book is wonderfully organized and full of great info. Will be a staple for older picture book readers and bug loving kids.

Science books should all be fun like this. With bright, cute pictures, kids can learn so much about the role of insects in the world. It's clear that every creature in the world has an important job, and this makes it easy to understand. Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this adorable picture book

This is such a perfect bug book! 🐛

The illustrations are phenomenal, colorful, engaging, appropriate! This book is accessible, has information that is easily digestible, and the layout is so well organized and thought out. This is one we will be keeping in our forever library 🙂

With lovely pictures and tones of information this children's books explaining insects and why we should respect them is brilliant. It's so packed full of interesting facts.

To many children are scared of bugs and this book will help them understand them and maybe take that fear away as well as educating in why bugs are important to the world and us.

This vibrant book begins with a whimsical introduction about insects, emphasizing their remarkable qualities and their significant contributions to the environment. The book is divided into five distinct sections: Cleaner-Uppers, Menu Makers, Ecosystem Enigmas, Teeny-Tiny Teachers, and Inspiring Icons. Each section discusses various insects in detail.

Brimming with vibrant illustrations, this book serves as a treasure trove for insect enthusiasts. It delves into the world of unique and uncommon insects, showcasing species not typically found in ordinary books. Remarkably, the facts presented in the book are closely connected to our everyday surroundings. As a result, with a keen eye, we may encounter some of these fascinating insects from the book in our environment. Without insects like the ones in this book, we wouldn't exist. But they are disappearing quickly. So it's our responsibility to use things wisely without disturbing the environment.

The release date for this book is July 9th. I will definitely be adding this book to our home library.

I'm grateful to NetGalley for providing me with the opportunity to read this book.

A beautifully illustrated book about insects. The informational text is presented in a way that will grab the interests of students without being boring. This is an essential add to all elementary school libraries.

Thank you to NetGalley, Wide Eye Editions, and Quarto Publishing Group for the eARC!

Respect the Insect is such a fun and informational book for all ages. Learn about cool characteristics of bugs and their importance in our eco system. With pesticides becoming increasingly used in our society, I think it’s vital to understand and spread knowledge about the benefits of insects, which really does start at a young age. As a gardener myself, my kids thoroughly enjoyed flipping through the pages and learning FACTS as well as the funny illustrations. Any science or nature loving kid is going to love this book and it’s a must for Spring and Summer.

A great book for insect lovers. The combination of lovely drawings and interesting information is wonderful. Suitable for older children and insect enthusiats.

Taylor Swifts new album on repeat, reading the boys some new kids books I got advanced copies of, and the sun is shining….a happy Friday in my book! ☀️📚🎶

These books were so cute! I can’t wait to show my daughter the bug book as she’s been really interested in ladybugs lately. The Happy Stories for Animal Lovers was absolutely adorable! It was full of such beautiful illustrations and fun facts about animals. The Pond and the Park was a really adorable story about friendships. Respect the Insect book was very interesting to my son who has been hesitant with flies coming inside. Hee hee. He always really enjoyed Little People Big Dreams about Stan Lee and comics. My daughter is going to love Gabriel’s Toothfairy Tale as she’s been waiting anxiously for her tooth to fall out. Torla and Smorla was a really cute book my younger song loved. The Bison and the Butterfly was precious! Add these books to your kids summer TBR lists for summer reading programs. Thank you @netgalley for these advance copies!
