Wacky Planets

A Book Bug is a book in the form of a little box that has a bug inside. Loosen the velcro flap to lift the lid -- and out pops a spring-loaded, stuffed-fabric, funny-looking bug face! Actually, each bug looks a little bit like a caterpillar, because attached behind each face is an elongated body -- a set of fan-fold, color-illustrated card stock pages. Each page presents a little joke or an amusing fact that relates to the title's main theme, plus a comical Book Bug illustration to go with it. Book Bugs make novelty gifts that will prompt giggles from every kid who gets one.This little Book Bug rockets into space. He soon decides that Venus is a terrible planet to visit, especially on days when it rains sulfuric acid!Barron's Educational Series Staff is the author of 'Wacky Planets', published 2000 under ISBN 9780613829366 and ISBN 0613829360.
