woods, minibeasts are everywhere to be found! So grab this handy
nature guide and explore every nook and cranny you can find, there
might just be a surprise. Did you know that honey bees have a

You will learn what a dragonfly's lifecycle looks like, which
habitat each insect enjoys most and what kind of minibeasts you may

it comes to minibeast-watching. Whether you're in a city park or on
a walk in the woods, don't ever leave your RSPB Nature Guide:
Minibeasts at home! Includes information on how to make your green
space bug friendly, activities such as making a wormery and a
minibeast checklist so you can tick off everything you spot! With
beautiful and life-like illustrations by Kate McLelland throughout,
this is the perfect contemporary pocket guide for young wildlife
watchers and adult nature enthusiasts alike. This is the third book
in the RSPB Nature Guide series, following Birds and Wildlife.
This is a non-fiction book like no other, because it is a flip book
in two languages. Children can read THE CLOWNFISH in English or
flip the book over to enjoy EL PEZ PAYASO in Spanish. Children will
no longer be confused by having both translations on the same page.
Tina Liccioni has over 10 years of experience teaching regular
education, English as a Second Language, and Bilingual children at
the elementary level. She believes children prefer non-fiction
books with vibrant, real photographs, like the ones in this book.
After researching, she found that there is not a big selection of
non-fiction books to choose from for young readers, and even fewer
that are bilingual. THE CLOWNFISH/EL PEZ PAYASO has simple
sentences for beginning readers, ages 4-8. Since it is factual,
even older children can learn about the clownfish's colorful
appearance, habitat, eggs, diet and size. This book is highly
recommended for teachers, librarians, and parents. Share it with
chldren so that they may develop a love for reading at an early age
and become stronger in two languages. Este es un libro como ning
