Are You a Grasshopper? (Backyard Books)

Needed a book to go with Grasshopper puppet that was gifted to my granddaughter.

I have nearly every book in this series for my son, he loves them. This is the first one I've read that mentions mating, which is pretty cool in my opinion since that's pretty much what wild life is all about. Great book and great series, I hope for more to be published!

I am very satisfied with my purchase.

We have ordered the majority of the Backyard books for our daughter who loves science. Good explanation, fair illustrations. Has been great for preschooler, early elementary age child regarding understanding material and encouraging interest in science. Our favorites are "Are you a Ladybug" and "Are you a Butterfly" but all books have been informative and fun to read! We have even learned quite a bit as parents and one of us actually has a science background.

Grandsons loved it. They are three year old twins and giant bugs are just the thing as Thomas the train has passed and now the Movie Cars characters are stars.Bugs never go out of style for 3 year old boys and it was a great complement to Wild Republic bag insects ,which are so well made and fun for the boys.

Clear large illustrations and simple but informative text, with a humorous final comparison between grasshoppers and kids that solidifies the information.

Bought it for my daughter. She's 36. She loved it.

I quite like the format of this book. It tells the story of grasshoppers by asking questions. At the end it turns around to what a child is. The illustrations are terrific and the information is perfect for young children to understand. I was so impressed that I bought numerous other books that are by the same authors and done in the same format. They will work well in my classroom.

I learned loads and so did my 3 year old. Even if a lot of it goes over his head now, it's the kind of book he can keep coming back to for years to come. The text has a lovely conversational tone. I bought most of the series, and all the ones I've read so far seem great. (Although the life of a grasshopper is pretty hazardous sometimes...!)

Fun book

A book of facts regarding grasshoppers which small children have the ability to understand. Numerous illustrations to add to facts. Would highly recommend this book for children interested in Grasshoppers.

thanks!
