This is such a fun drawing book for bug-loving kids! It’s a great way to learn how to draw all kinds of bugs, with step-by-step instructions that are doable for my 7-year-old and older kids. It's a bit too challenging for my 5-year-old, but for elementary-aged kids who love bugs, this is a great choice!

Great bug book! My 5 year old enjoyed identifying and drawing all the different types of bugs. Her favorite is the drawing prompts at the end of the book where she puts her new skills to the test.
