The amazing world of bugs and minibeasts revealed in exuberant poems and pictures by a bestselling duo

Bestselling poet James Carter and illustrator Neal Layton love bugs and minibeasts and here they celebrate them all – from grasshoppers, ladybirds and dung beetles to moths, flies, wasps – and even bedbugs. Including the extraordinary tardigrades who can live in outer space.

With 24 poems, including shape poems, riddles, rhyming poems and free verse, plus amazing and informative facts about each bug or minibeast on every page, the world of insects is brought buzzing to life, matched by Neal Layton’s bugtiful colour illustrations.

James Carter is a former lecturer in Creative Writing and Children's Literature at Reading University – now a world-travelling children's poet, giving performances with his melodica at festivals, workshops and in libraries and schools. His previous books for younger children are Zim Zam Zoom, illustrated by Nicola Colton, and A Ticket to Kalamazoo, illustrated by Neal Layton. He lives in Oxfordshire. Neal Layton studied Graphic Design and Illustration at Newcastle University and Central St Martin's School of Art. His images are prized for their spontaneity and inventiveness. His picture books include The Tree, The Story of Stars, and A Planet Full of Plastic. He lives on the Isle of Wight.
