An invasion of insect aliens from another planet disrupts Earth Bugs' Dance until one brave bug befriends the invaders and fear gives way to peace and understanding. Pencil and watercolor illustrations.
A really strange story. It starts with a bunch of insects having a dance, but an alien bug invasion on a nearby island disrupts it. In the end the aliens prove to be friendly and the hero of the story wins the dance contest. Weird.
But excellent illustrations! Earth bugs can be strange looking enough, but alien bugs are really weird!
My son brought this home from his school library. We've read it three times now! A cute story, with great illustrations, and a very nice message of acceptance.
