What They're Saying

Critics Review

Body armor, invisibility, and web slinging are not just for superheroes … An appealing format for comic fans, reluctant readers, and budding entomologists alike.

Booklist

This book is full of photos, facts, and some gross yet fascinating knowledge about various creepy-crawly creatures that inhabit the Earth … Overall the book is accessible, engaging, and pleasing to flip through even just for the photos and factoids.

School Library Journal
Bug Power amazes, fascinates, and inspires in ways the average ‘bug book’ does not. The artwork blends fictional comic book action with factual detail, and the text is equally dynamic. I would recommend this book to readers of any age.–Eric R. Eaton, author of Bugwatching
Merges superhero action with bug brilliance–a fascinating way to connect to the wonderful world of insects!–Maynard Okereke, author of Zombie Spiders and Asteroid Blasters
