  1. Would love to win the “Bugs…” book. I have several boys in my class that would love to have another science themed book.

  2. As always you have some super giveaways. I would love to win the BUG book. The preschoolers love anything that involves bugs. We do a unit on insects/bugs. Thank you for all the giveaways that you do.

  3. Wow, I have reluctant readers who would love to read the “Bugs” book. I am teaching an after school program on bugs. We have found spiders, wasps, hornets, ladybug, etc.on the playground and at the river.

  4. I already told my board about the Chuckie Cheese thing. Love that. I am signing up for the PBS. Thank you for the great resources and would love to win the book. Love insects.

  5. I loved learning about bugs when I was a little one. I bet this book would hold the interest of any bored boy or girl who would rather be outside playing in the dirt.
