The reader-friendly book contains a table of contents, glossary, index and further resources page. Up-close colored photographs, combined with comical watercolors, decorate the two page spreads on each category. This non-fiction book grabs the attention of boys ages 6-9...when no other type does!

"A Kid's Review
Insect Record's is a great book to read if you have spare time. They have the fattest, fastest, biggest and many more! This book is a great guide for bug seekers who are #1 bug catchers. The book will tell you which bugs are deadly and which are wimpy. You could see if you caught one already! Insect Record's is a book for all kids. It's also good for tests. This book will also keep you laughing. This book will probably be the best book you've read all year!
The book's message is laughter. You can never have too much fun! Laughing is the great cure for everybody! I hope you read this book.

I think this book is funny because it has weird pictures. There was one insect that travels a lot. It had a picture of an insect traveling with bags full of clothes. On a scale of 0% to 100% I would give it a 100%!" Amazon review
