"I did a small group lesson plan with this book in my 2nd grade class and the children loved it! The pictures are really bold and eye-catching; plus the fact that she actually eats bugs the kids find hilarious!"

Beetle McGrady Eats Bugs! Listener Reviews
-
" The kids loved it--seeing a girl do something "disgusting" seems to be way too much fun. It does streatch a little above their heads they only understand when she eats something. I don't like how long the book is. Too many words to keep Taren's attention. "

" James and I LOVE this book. I want my son to have a wealth of experiences and to never be afraid to try new things. What a fun way to discuss adventure and bravery with your child. "

" This is just one of those fun children's books that make you think of things and ask your kids questions never thought of before, like would you eat bugs if someone served them up all fancy in a pasta or cookie? "
