Life histories of the more important insects from the dragon flies to the butterflies, given in readable form for young people.
"Insect Folk" invites young readers into the fields and woods to become acquainted with the insect people and with their habits and customs. The life histories of the most important insects in the principal Insect orders, from the dragon flies to the butterflies, are given in readable form. The work presents a clear and careful account of the ever-wonderful transformations through which so many of the Insects pass. There are more than 200 illustrations woven in with the text. The abundant facts are graphically, but concisely stated in paragraphs, often with a single sentence. It is remarkably complete as to information, clear as to statements, interesting in the general setting, with a valuable glossary.
