It gives a basic introduction of different groups of insects and spiders and then goes into detail about different species. There are corresponding illustrations. I think it would've been much cooler if there had been actual pictures. The species specific descriptions were also very vague. But I guess its alright for a beginner's book for kids.

I thought that the book was good because it had lots of interesting facts about insects and spiders. Also, I learned about insects and spiders I never heard of. Someone who likes reading about bug facts should read this book because I loved it so much.

Butterfly pages are the best. Stay away from the horse flies.
