<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Listen closely to the sounds of insects. Together they make a concert! Learn about how they do it"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Kids love bugs, and this book takes readers outside both day and night to see and hear all the sights and sounds. The illustrations are fun and use the sounds of the insects to direct the readers eye to all the cool sounds bugs make. Accurate scientific information accompanies all of the fun of heading out to the backyard on a summer night to experience the bugs!</strong></p><p>In this colorful picture book, Himmelman introduces the sounds of "noisy bugs" and invites children to sing along with them. Each double-page spread focuses on one insect, with a line of text, such as "A Dog-Day Cicada buzzes LOUDLY high in a tree. / ZZZZZZZZ," and a meticulously drawn, large-scale image of the animal, with color, texture, and shading apparently added digitally. The big, bold images make the illustrations inviting to children, while the accurate depictions of individual insects reward closer study. Among those featured are the tiger moth (SQUEAKA-SQUEAKA-SQUEAK), the mosquito (mmmmmm), and the bush katydid (tick-tick-tick zeezeezeezee). In contrast, the butterfly flies by in silence. An appended section provides the sound waves (on paper and, through a link, in audio files) recorded for each example; a paragraph of information about each bug and its sound; and good children's activities for related of insect sounds.</p><strong>A perfect book for: </strong><li>parents and teachers needing homeschool materials for kindergarten (or any grade!)</li><li>anyone looking for singalong books for kids and toddlers!</li><li>anyone looking for children's books to help instill an appreciation of our planet!</li>
