Little Garden People and What They Do

My favorite cicadas are singing...

Charlotte found a male stag beetle on our front door one balmy evening.  She named him "Zeus" and for a few days he was our pet.

I've been going to a lot of flea markets lately and found this wonderful vintage picture book.  I love the descriptions of the insects and their life cycle and the most wonderful illustrations!!
