Description: This book is suitable for ages 6-12. Watching an ant carry a crumb across a sidewalk holds great fascination for children. Children will certainly be eager to read more about this industrious insect in this book. The fascinating text is accompanied by full-colour images and illustrations, which help describe: an ant's body; it's habitat; the stages of ant metamorphosis: egg, larva, pupa, and adult; the roles of workers, males, and queens in the colony; and the importance of ants to the environment.
