Description: How do insects survive in different environments? They adapt! In Insect Adaptations: Mouthparts, Mimicry, and Flying, young entomologists ages 5 to 8 explore the wild world of insect adaptations. From long legs to mimicry to flight, insects have mastered the science of adaptation through natural selection, which happens as survival traits are passed down through many generations. Fun illustrations, photos, glossary, poem, and a hands-on activity make this a great introduction to life science!
