Praying Mantises (A True Book)

By Larry Dane

This book about the fascinating praying mantis is significantly enhanced by detailed photographs that capture praying mantises in all stages of life. The photographer has captured images of praying mantises mating, laying eggs, hatching, emerging from the egg case, dangling to the ground, stalking and consuming their prey, and molting. The text and photos take an amazing look at the various forms of camouflage employed by this insect in a variety of environments. A challenging glossary is included.
