Critics Review

Ants for Kids is a gem of a book! It’s incredibly informative and full of interesting and surprising facts about ants of all kinds. It is clear, organized, easy to read, and features stunning images. The experiments engage junior readers in a way that makes learning exciting and fun. Beverly Gerdeman is an expert entomologist who knows how to share information in a way kids want to receive it.” –Caely-Ann McNabb, Founder of Live Light Energy Healing
“I wish I had this book as a child. The graphics, facts, and stories draw one in to a full experience in the world of ants. I love how it sets up practical experiments for kids to observe the ants’ behaviors and how they overcome obstacles, defend from predators, forage, and survive. The book is comprehensive but inviting in how it balances pictures and information in an easy and clear way for understanding and in creating a desire to know more. If you have young scientists and explorers, this is a must-buy.” –Michael K.J. Popovici
“With its engaging text and clear, lively illustrations and photos, Ants for Kids brings children into the endlessly complex world of these ubiquitous insects. Although it is targeted at ages 6 to 9, this book will appeal to a wide range of young readers. Lively photos and drawings will engage younger pre-readers; abundant facts, captivating stories, and fun activities will capture the interest and curiosity of older children.” –Sandra S. Myers
