Sensitive Topics
None. The book takes a secular, factual approach to nature. Predatory behavior (eating other bugs) is mentioned as a natural fact of life without graphic detail.
Ideal Reader
A 4-year-old who is obsessed with 'creepy crawlies' but might be a little intimidated by faster-moving insects. This book builds a sense of familiarity that replaces fear with fascination.
