Description

There are more than a million species of insects living on Earth, and all insects have similar bodies. In Insect Bodies, children will learn the major physical features of insects and the importance of each body part. Close-up photographs and clearly labeled illustrations help explain: an insect’s three main body sections; the different kinds of insect mouthparts; how insects use their eyes and antennae; and why and how insects molt as they grow; how insects move.
