"Squirmy and educational." — Kirkus Reviews
Dig in as a flurry of bugs of every shape, size, and color crawl across the page in a veritable infestation of whimsy and humor. Cars Galore creators Peter Stein and Bob Staake return with an in-the-dirt, high-in-the-sky critter tale buzzing with nonstop rhymes and swarming with comical retro illustrations.
