On Beyond Bugs - Tish Rabe

"They live in water, the earth and the sky. Just wait... and you'll soon see an insect go by!" With these words Dr. Seuss' Cat in the Hat sets out to take young readers on a fascinating tour of the insect world - a world teeming with six legged critters from moths to fleas and fireflies.This title forms part of a series of books that takes an off-beat look at natural history through a fun combination of Seussian rhymes and zany illustrations. Aimed at early readers - from four to seven year olds - the books are designed to bridge the gap between concept books written for preschoolers and more formal non fiction titles that require fluent reading skills. By presenting the facts in a lively and rhythmic manner, they provide the critical foundation upon which complex facts and ideas can eventually be built.

Tish Rabe is a bestselling author who has written over one hundred and sixty children's books, including titles for The Cat in the Hat Knows About That!, Sesame Street, Blue's Clues, Disney, Clifford the Big Red Dog, and Curious George. Ms. Rabe lives in New York City and Mystic, Connecticut.
