About the author

SHERYL SCARBOROUGH, an award-winning writer for children’s television, is the author of To Catch A Killer and To Right The Wrongs, a YA mystery series with Tor Teen. The appearance of a habitual Peeping Tom at her home when she was twelve, sparked an obsession with forensics. After each visit, Sheryl diligently photographed his footprints and collected the candy wrappers he left behind. Unfortunately, he was never caught. But the desire to use evidence to solve a great mystery was sparked inside Scarborough all the same. She holds an MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults from Vermont College of Fine Arts and lives with her husband and writer-cats in Washington state, across the river from Portland, OR.

I wish there was more cohesion between the pages. My 3.5 year old was so excited when he saw the cover (he loves animal and bug books) but we couldn't make it through the book without a lot of stopping. There also isn't a good way to just look up a particular bug of interest in the book.

Two different second graders enjoyed reading this book, we had discussions about some of the bugs, and also looked at more images on Google for others.
