Wicked Bugs: The Meanest, Deadliest, Grossest Bugs on Earth by Amy Stewart, Briony Morrow-Cribbs
4.0
I was fortunate to receive an Advance Reading Copy of this book.
This is a fun chapter book for elementary age readers who are obsessed with deadly creatures. (An obsession I can relate to from back when I was that age!) The book is filled with scary, deadly and sometimes horrifying delights for young readers. Some might be nightmare-provoking (the tongue eating louse?) but overall it's thrills, chills and an entertaining read. I was a little puzzled by the absence of funnel web spiders, since they are pretty darn deadly. Nevertheless, there is a fine assortment of scary creatures.
