Good information, just really "dumbed down." I didn't realize it was intended for kids at time of purchase or I wouldn't have chose this.
This book is a great introduction into displaying insects. The pictures and wording are done very well and are easily understood.
This is a very small, but concise book. It contains everything you really need to know about catching insects, and pinning them to a board. Definitely worth the purchase, but do not expect a whole lot out of the book.
This was great for the student that was just learning the concept of catching and mounting insects. Exactly what was needed.
Very nice detailed descriptions on how to mount butterflies. I wish it was a little bit longer but that's really it.
