Book Synopsis
Listen up. Have you heard the buzz? Humans aren't the only big talkers out there. Insects also communicate using sound. But what do the sounds mean? Scientists are uncovering the un-BEE-lievable answers--and so will you!
Author Joyce Markovics returns with the newest addition to the How Living Things Communicate series, Huh? Talking Insects--this time exploring the multitude of ways insects communicate with one another. From buzzes and chirps to click and rattles, young scientists can investigate the way insects, such as crickets, cicadas, grasshoppers, bees, and more, "speak" to one another! Including a backyard bug experiment and chock-full of interesting information on communicative critters, this book is sure to spark scientific curiosity in readers.
