Creepy, Crawly Caterpillars

**A close-up look at 13 different types of caterpillars: this illustrated book focuses on 13 caterpillars found in various parts of the world**, from the Banded Woolly Bear to the Green Grappler. The book discusses the caterpillar's anatomy, growth process, metamorphosis and behaviour. A glossary of terms is included in the back of the book. **From School Library Journal: Gr 2-5? This book will be greeted with cries of delight by those seeking new, attractive, and informative materials for a "butterfly" project or science unit on metamorphosis.** After an introduction to basic caterpillar anatomy and behavior, Facklam presents a baker's dozen of common and decidedly uncommon species ranging from the familiar migratory Monarchs and hibernating woolly bears to the distinctly unusual carnivorous green grappler (caterpillar stage of the Hawaiian Eupithecia moth). The clear, readable text is confined to most of one side of a double-page spread; the rest is taken up by an arresting, full-color, much magnified illustration of the caterpillar in question and a colorful base border depicting the four stages to flight? egg, caterpillar, chrysalis/cocoon, butterfly/moth. A glossary completes this dramatically illustrated, competently written package.?Patricia Manning, Eastchester Public Library, NY Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc.
