About the Book:
This book endeavours to arouse the curiosity of its readers about insects. There is a lot we can learn from these intriguing six-legged creations of Nature. Can you imagine how orderly and stream-lined the life of that pencil-point sized ant crawling towards your sugar pot could be? Or that bright red and black butterfly fluttering around your window is actually masquerading as a poisonous butterfly to fool its would-be predators? Or what you thought was some obnoxious matter moving about on a plant was actually the larva of a Tortoise-shell Beetle that has covered itself with strands of its own excreta? Indeed, you will never cease to wonder about their awe-inspiring lives.
Do go through the pages of this book to get a sneak peek into their entertaining and fascinating lives.
