Third in a series of alphabet books from the pseudonymous Mrs. Peanuckle, this board book offers a lighthearted look at 26 insects, from ant to zorapteran. The bugs are introduced in "A is for..." form, paired with pleasantly textured digital illustrations and chatty commentary. Most of these extra details fall into the category of intriguing trivia, but a couple are misleading (a dragonfly's head is described as "one big eye") or not entirely substantiated by science, namely the debatable claim that a rhinoceros beetle "can lift 850 times its own weight." Simultaneously available: Mrs. Peanuckle's Flower Alphabet. Up to age 3. (Feb.)

Mrs. Peanuckle loves to write, talk to animals and birds, and putter in her garden. She has a vast assortment of children and grandchildren (some of them pets and some of them imaginary). She also collects rocks, shells, books, and eccentric friends. When she is not traveling and exploring the universe, you can find her cooking and eating while singing in her magical cabin in the woods. Most of all, she loves to laugh. Jessie Ford is an English illustrator whose colorful view of the world has been brightening up people's lives for more than a decade. Her graphic shapes, bold color palette, hand drawn typography, and textured layers create a handmade effect that has been commissioned by clients such as Abrams, Volkswagen, Samsonite, Unilever, and Westin Hotels. She lives near the sea in Brighton with her boyfriend, Emile, and their giant ginger cat, Hal. Visit her online at sugarsnapstudio.co.uk.
