A great book, guaranteed to induce beetle-mania amongst your students if they're not already obsessed (I remember my son going through an insect obsession stage), so get ready with plenty of nonfiction beetle books! Good balance of suspense and hi-jinx, adults are kept at arms length except when necessary to further the plot. Can't wait for the next book.
