Summary: This book details the life cycle of ants by using illustrations and pictures as well as detailed information on each page. The book explains the role of the ants in the colony as well as what the bugs eat and what the purpose of a queen ant is.
Analysis: Similar to the previous books, the illustrations and pictures are well done and the information is interesting and factual.
Application: Yes, I would use this in a classroom possibly for an ecosystem or biology lesson.
