What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book mentions natural predators (like birds and lizards) as part of the grasshopper's life. This is presented factually and is not graphic. The approach is entirely secular and scientific.
Ideal Reader
The ideal reader is a 5- to 7-year-old who is in a concrete learning phase and has just become interested in insects. This child enjoys facts, asks a lot of "what is that?" questions, and is captivated by detailed photographs of nature. They prefer learning how things work over following a fictional story.
