Insects in Comics. Volume 1

Insects are everywhere around us. What do they eat, how do they sleep, how do they hunt and defend themselves? Christophe Kaznow and François Vodarzak decided to answer these and many other questions about insects, calling upon all their knowledge... and humor. Maintaining strict scientific accuracy, the authors made their six-legged characters laugh, cry, tell jokes, quote "Star Wars" and recall the First World War. You will witness scenes of ruthless wars, mysterious transformations, sophisticated hunting methods and equally amazing defense techniques.
You will learn why fireflies glow, how many spots are on a ladybug's back and what a stick insect fears. Moreover, they will tell you about it themselves! Yes, one of the chapters of this book is called: "Do insects speak?" What a question - of course, they do! Although in their own way... Fortunately, over the years of working on this series, the authors have learned the language of insects so well that they were able to flawlessly translate their colorful stories into human language! And for better assimilation of the material (which, we remind you, is based solely on real facts), there is a test at the end of the book, all the answers to which can be found on its pages - it’s enough to show a little attention.
But that’s not all! The book concludes with a detailed lecture on a topic that is, let’s say, quite pressing for insects, such as mimicry and camouflage. It is important to note that the authors did not concoct anything on their own, and as the main speaker invited a specialist - an ant, who approached the matter with full responsibility and even called on his friends, true professionals: a blues butterfly, a birch looper, a dirty predator, a leaf insect and many, many others. They surely know their stuff!
