“Line up every kind of plant and animal on Earth . . . and one of every four will be a beetle.” Some stink, some sprint, and all are fascinating. Latin names given for each beetle in the book, along with the part of the world where it’s found and its size. Full-color illustrations in torn- and cut-paper collage.
