First sentence: Bugs are incredible! They have lived on earth since before the dinosaurs. Scientists who study bugs are called entomologists.
Premise/plot: This is an insect-themed, bug-themed board book for young readers. This is part of Abrams' "Block" series of board books. This one is more informational and nonfiction than the other books in the series, I think. (Though I suppose many can be considered 'concept' books.) It is packed with facts.
My thoughts: I don't particularly like bugs or insects. I do like good nonfiction. This one is full of interesting information. While it may not appeal to every single little one, there will be plenty who will enjoy it.

Wildly clever and fun to read - ‘Bug Block’ by Christopher Franceschelli has quickly become my young kids’ favorite. The block book pages are designed to open in many different ways so that each turn feels like an adventure. Filled with fun facts and information, there is plenty to learn about, and as Franceschelli puts it best, “Bugs are INCREDIBLE!”

20 month old and I aren't particularly into bugs, but we enjoyed this book enough to look at some of the pages twice. :)
