New adventures of Chevostik and Uncle Kuzya in the amazing world of insects and spiders. The heroes fly on the back of a dragonfly, enter an anthill, and meet a real predator — a ladybug. Incredible discoveries await at every turn.
Inside the cover, you will find helpful notes in the margins, engaging tasks, and ideas for games that will help you take a fresh look at the world around you and develop observation skills and imagination.
Children will learn why the childhood of a cicada lasts a full 17 years, why caterpillars need to learn the "language" of ants, and which spider pretends to be a flower. They will also discover how a single anthill protects a forest the size of a football field, and why, without insects, the world would lack many favorite things — from silk to honey gingerbread.
The book features 20+ types of small creatures, vivid illustrations, and unusual facts that will surprise both children and adults. There is no need to be afraid of a buzzing bee or a quick spider anymore — after all, each of them takes care of our planet in their own way.
Chevostik is a beloved character from encyclopedias and audio projects, making learning about the world truly interesting and easy. It will be a hit with children who already own books from this series.
