Find out why bugs are so important - to humans, animals and the survival of our planet

Our amazing bugs are in trouble. Without bugs, plants would not be able to make flowers or fruit. If bugs disappeared, so would strawberries, apples, beans and tomatoes, and even chocolate. Without them, we couldn't grow enough food to feed us all. If we lost bugs, we would also lose creatures who depend on them for survival, such as songbirds, badgers, bats and fish.

Written by the conservation charity Buglife, this book shows the reasons why bugs are so important - to humans, animals and the survival of our planet. Discover bugs in all shapes, sizes and colours, and learn how these tiny creatures are going to help SAVE the world. You can also discover what you can do to help protect bugs.

Buglife, the Invertebrate Conservation Trust, is dedicated to protecting insects, bugs and all invertebrate species.

This book supports science work in schools by looking at different animals, adaptation, food chains, life cycles, habitats and climate change.

In the accompanying book, Plants Save the World, you can discover why plants are vitally important to the survival of our planet, too!
