The illustrations are very textured, multi-media collage.  Each two-page spread with a close-up illustration of some bug, asking “What bug has a _____ like this?” is followed with a two-page spread that zooms out to show the full bug, in its habitat, and providing a description of how that particular body part serves that bug.  Most of the bugs will be familiar to young children, allowing them to participate in the guessing game the book invites. A paragraph in the back of the book explains the more scientific classification vocabulary, stating that all the “bugs” in the book belong to a large group of animals called Arthropods; it defines this term, along with the smaller groups (insects, arachnids, and myriapods) into which arthropods can be subdivided, thus inviting children into classification.
