My phobia of bugs has always been with me and I still get shivers thinking about them crawling on me or buzzing near my ears.
I love learning about nature and science and I have passed this love onto my 10 year old also.
He loves to learn and I hoped this book would be a fun summer reading addition. It turned out it was the best book for both of us!!
Loaded with information and pictures, this was a great tool to help us identify many creepy things. He gained solid basic biology knowledge and I gained less fear.

Win-Win for all!!

Synergy: Insects

Insects are small arthropods with six legs. Generally, insects have one or two pairs of wings. These small invertebrate animals have segmented bodies, jointed legs, and external skeletons. They are sometimes referred to as bugs.

GUINEA PIGS!! WEARING GLASSES!!

Ahem. I admit it, I am as vulnerable to cute as the next person, especially if guinea pigs are involved.

This is a story of three sisters. Philomena, Audrey, and Nora Jane are very similar and yet a little different. But, as sisters, they like to do everything together. So when Philomena gets some snazzy purple glasses, Audrey and Nora Jane get glasses too.

Then Philomena gets a handbag for her glasses. Audrey thinks that would be useful - a place to keep snacks! Nora Jane is a little worried about all the things she's having to haul around though.

Finally, the sisters have a discussion and realize they don't always have to be exactly the same - they only need the things they're really using. Maybe...

The real draw of this is guinea pigs. In glasses. With handbags of snacks! Adorable. It would go well with a storytime on clothes or on things not having to be "fair" all the time.

Verdict: Fans of Nancy Rose's squirrel photography and guinea pig lovers will delight in this silly story. Guinea pigs!
