If it jiggles just a little or its home is in the mud or it wiggles down its middle … oh indeed – it's a bug! If it scuttles or it rustles or it leaps upon a rug or it bustles in a meadow … yes siree – it is a bug! Best-selling poet James Carter loves bugs. He has written many poems about them, and now here is a whole book devoted to bugs and minibeasts. Buzzing with energy and fun, it celebrates them in all their glorious bugliness – grasshoppers, moths, ladybirds, dung beetles, flies, wasps, even bedbugs get a look in, and finishes with the extraordinary tardigrades who can live in outer space. Many are shape poems – Carter's speciality – some are riddles, and all are perfectly matched by Neal Layton's bugtiful colour illustrations.
