WONDER YEARS, THE

On the edge of a blade of grass: about bugs, bees and butterflies

Perhaps there is not a single child who did not love insects in early childhood. Children collect earthworms with interest after the rain, they are touched by flies, bees and beetles. But over time, this sincere love for many turns into fear. And now the girl is squealing at the sight of a grasshopper, the boy is screaming as soon as he sees a fly, and they all scream together if some beetle has crawled out from under a pebble.

A bee has a striped back, but you cannot call it a tiger.
(Chinese proverb)

Of course, some insects are really dangerous, and children need to know about this. But at the same time, I want the openness inherent in children to the world to be preserved as long as possible. Therefore, our today’s review is devoted to books about insects, from the study of which a child’s passion for entomology can begin.

Let’s start with the book by Alena Kashura and Mikhail Tsurikov “A terrible beetle? Good beetle! This small book, published by the Nastya and Nikita publishing house, debunks those terrible myths about insects that little readers love to pass on to each other. For example, about the fact that a butterfly with the formidable name Dead Head brings the mark of death, that an earwig necessarily crawls into a person’s ears, that false scorpions hide in books, and then bite the fingers of those who read, etc. In fact, everything turns out to be wrong. like this: A dead head warns predators that it is inedible, the folded wings of an earwig simply resemble the shape of a human ear, and false scorpions prey on small hay bugs that live in books. Each turn is a separate story (first, an existing myth is given, then a refutation of why this is not so). In form (question-answer) the book resembles the famous “Letters of Insects” by Olga Kuvykina. The book turned out bright and beautiful, pictures on each page. A very good option for children who are afraid of insects: the authors in an interesting and accessible form urge not to be afraid of bugs and spiders, but to know and love them.

Another interesting book that will help awaken interest in insects, very informative, with a lot of illustrations, is Beetles and Other Amazing Insects. School guide” by Sergei Afonkin. The author talks about beetles, spiders, butterflies, bees, mosquitoes and their relatives. Young readers will learn why termites feed on wood, that the cockroach is a relative of termites, the belief that butterflies are born from flower petals, that the titan lumberjack is the largest beetle in the world, and much more. The book is the perfect first aid for the little entomologist. Written in a lively, captivating language: it seems as if the author, your old acquaintance, is next to you, and you are talking heart to heart. As soon as you ask a question, he already has an answer ready!

Well, who else is able to captivate children so much with stories about bugs and ants, who will write about them in such a way that it will be impossible not to fall in love with insects? Of course, Ondrej Sekora! If you have ever seen his cheerful ant Ferda with a red handkerchief around his neck (even if you have not read a single story about him), then you will agree that it is impossible not to fall in love with this hero at first sight. Here is the Pytlik beetle from the book “The Adventures of the Pytlik Beetle” exactly like that. He is Ferda’s assistant, he appeared right in the railing of the balcony in the cinema, so he has seen everything in his lifetime. Cheerful and cheerful Pytlik enjoys playing with little crickets, teaches grasshoppers to jump, finds himself in a variety of situations, but always gets away with it. By the way, in his homeland Pytlik is as popular as Ferda. Children like the writer’s work, firstly, he is very sincere with them, and secondly, the world of insects he created is so alive and true that you want to read again and again about all these Khrushchaks, Water striders and Ground beetles. In addition, Secora adds scientific facts to his stories, so for many readers, the passion for entomology begins precisely with his stories.

Now let’s move on to bees, because they are loved and feared at the same time (they bring honey, but they can also sting!). So what do we know about bees. Firstly, “if the bears were bees, then they would never have thought of building a house so high.” Secondly, it is the bees that help Vasya Kurolesov solve a dangerous crime (see “The Adventures of Vasya Kurolesov”). Well, thirdly, “hairy bumblebee for fragrant hops …” and all that. But we seem to know about the life of bees, the distribution of duties between them, the arrangement of hives, swarming, the production of honey, but at the same time we don’t. And when children start pestering with their endless “how?” and “why?”, it turns out that we can’t even answer. Therefore, we urgently set off to fill in the gaps in knowledge and select some of the most interesting and informative books about bees.

The most non-standard (literally and figuratively) and simply magical book about bees is the picture book by the Polish illustrator Piotr Sokha and the biologist Wojciech Grajkowski “Bees”, published by the Samokat publishing house. This huge book is amazing: each spread is a separate picture-story about some bee problem. These are not just captions for illustrations, everything is described here in detail, in detail, while the most important is singled out. The drawings combine “entertaining” and “informative” – ​​on the one hand, like any illustrations in children’s books, they are a little fabulous, on the other hand, they are so detailed that it seems as if you are not looking at the drawing, but really climbed into the hive with your head. Because of the large illustrations, the bees seem to be fantastic creatures, a kind of giant cyclops, and this look is very unusual! In addition, the sense of humor does not betray the authors, in each drawing there is a sea of ​​good irony and positive. That is why the book will be appreciated by both children and adults. An important difference from other similar “bee” encyclopedias: here interesting facts about bees are the core of the book, and all scientific ones supplement them, and not vice versa. The book motivates for further study of the life of bees and other insects, and also draws attention to a number of environmental problems.

Butterflies are the most ephemeral and most beautiful creatures on Earth. They appear from somewhere, quietly live their tiny lives, demanding almost nothing, and then they disappear, probably into some other world… Not at all the same as ours.
Haruki Murakami

Book-game from the Eksmo publishing house “What are the bees doing? Honey” from the “Let’s learn in the game” series is addressed to kids. A minimum of text and a lot of bright, summery illustrations. This book is a summer meadow, the book is a flowering garden. On each page of the task for kids: count the bees, find couch potato drones, find those who are not averse to eating honey, etc. At the end, it is proposed to create your own garden (make flowers from paper and fabric), and also make small bees ( from yellow capsules of kinder surprises) and plant them on flowers. The manufacturing schemes are very simple, even the smallest can do it. Well, and what is important, the authors did not forget about the cognitive aspect: several spreads tell about the life of bees in a very accessible form.

Encyclopedia “Beehive. How do bees live? from the Piter publishing house will help you find answers to the most common children’s questions. The book is summer, bright, cheerful, addressed to preschoolers and younger students. There is not much text in it: a short story about what bees are, about the structure of the body of a bee, about bee species (for example, a dwarf honey bee or alfalfa leaf-cutting bee), about swarming and mating flight, about beekeeping. Separate spread — curious facts about bees. All the basic and important information about bees is present in the book, and I think this edition is perfect for a first acquaintance with the “bee” topic. The material is structured, presented simply and accessible, nothing superfluous: a clear question – a clear short answer. The highlight of the book is a 3D model of a bee hive that children can build on their own or with their parents. Even three or four-year-old children will find the book understandable and interesting, provided that they are interested in this topic.

But those who study the secret encyclopedia “Bees” from the series “What Animals Talk About” from the publishing house “Rosmen” can safely organize an apiary and engage in beekeeping for the rest of their lives. This book covers all the nuances of bee life in such detail that there are no more questions left. The authors talk about the structure of flowers and bees, how pollination occurs, how bees collect nectar, how to predict the weather from their behavior, about the apiary, the construction of a bee house, about the production of wax by bees, about the fertilization and life cycle of bees, and much more. Along with a large number of scientific facts, the book contains a lot of interesting information. It is placed in special frames in the form of stars. So, for example, readers will learn that bees lived on Earth as early as the middle of the Cretaceous period, that is, 97-100 million years ago, that bees were valued in Rus’, pharaohs loved them, and Napoleon I made the bee one of the symbols of his empire. The book contains many drawings and diagrams, a large amount of information, each question is explained in detail. At the same time, the authors touch on complex topics, so this encyclopedia is addressed to older readers, I would recommend 6+. The book can be used for writing essays or other design work – there is enough material! And, of course, if a child is interested in insects, and bees in particular, this book is indispensable for him!

From bees we move on to butterflies. Well, they are loved more than all other insects! “Beauty butterfly, eat jam!..”, “… a butterfly with wings byak-byak-byak…”, and also Yura Barankin and Kostya Malinin turned into butterflies from Valery Medvedev’s story “Barankin, be a man!”, and only a butterfly managed to put out the sea in Korney Chukovsky’s tale “Confusion”…

One of the most interesting encyclopedias about butterflies is “My Book of Butterflies” by Stefan Casta and Emma Tinnert from the White Crow publishing house. On the one hand, this is an encyclopedia, but it is written in such a lively, interesting language that it can be read like a fiction book. Already on the first page we learn that, it turns out, butterflies distinguish much more shades of color than humans, they have no ears, that they live off solar energy, and in order to take off, they need to have a temperature 15 degrees higher than air temperature. And, it turns out, dragonflies are enemies of butterflies! They eat butterflies, spitting out the leftovers! You can read about these and other amazing facts in My Book of Butterflies. The publication is richly illustrated; the butterflies are depicted on the flyleaf in full size. This book can be given for a birthday or any other holiday.

We also suggest paying attention to the visual pocket guide “The Most Beautiful Butterflies” by Xenia Mititello from Eksmo. The publication has a convenient mini-format so that you can take it with you on a trip or for a walk. Now any novice entomologist can learn to distinguish between families and species of butterflies. The authors give a detailed description of each species, talk about the structure, color, habitat of a particular butterfly, tell which family it belongs to, and many other facts. The guide is addressed to anyone who wants to learn more about butterflies. But it should be noted that for all the simplicity of presentation, this is still a special edition, there are no curious facts about butterflies, here is specific information on each individual species. The book can be used as additional material in school lessons, to expand your own knowledge on the topic, but, for example, for young children who just want to learn about butterflies, the choice is not the best (besides, there are few illustrations here).

If you are interested in butterflies, then you will also be interested in the set of postcards “Butterflies of Europe”, issued by the White City publishing house. With them, you can improve your own knowledge by determining the family and species of a particular butterfly. And with the help of such postcards, you can have conversations with kids, telling them about butterflies, offering to name colors, etc. (here, someone has enough imagination!).

Where there are flowers, there are butterflies.
(Vietnamese proverb)

The topic of books about insects has not been exhausted, we will definitely return to it a little later. In the meantime, take your children in your arms and go with them to nature, to the forest, to the garden, enjoy the beauty, study the world around you. And don’t forget about insects. Still, most of them are very cute!

Bees and their close relatives – wasps, bumblebees and hornets

Evolutionary bees originated from wasps. We know that predatory wasps eat other insects, including pollinating insects.

Eating pollen with them, there was a transition from an insectivorous lifestyle to feeding on pollen. The wasps that thus became “vegetarians” specialized and evolved into the bees we know. One pair of jaws of bees has changed, growing together, into a proboscis – with the help of it they collect nectar. The excess fluff on the body of the bee allows it to collect a large amount of pollen.

Bumblebees occupy an intermediate link between honey bees (family) and solitary bees, which do not form families. They are larger and fluffier than bees. They feed on pollen and nectar, which, like bees, are collected with the help of a proboscis. One clarification – the proboscis of bumblebees is longer, which allows them to collect nectar from flowers inaccessible to proboscis bees. You probably know that a bee stings an enemy and dies. This is due to the notches on her sting. Bumblebees, on the other hand, have a smooth sting and they can attack many times, but usually they do not do this – they are peaceful insects. Bumblebees form families, but they are quite small – that is why they are considered an intermediate link between honey bees and solitary bees. Nests are usually built in the soil, in abandoned rodent burrows or hollows. Bumblebees make honey, but in very small quantities – their small family does not need large supplies of honey.

Wasps, despite being related to bees and bumblebees, bear little resemblance to them. Their body is more graceful and almost without hairs. Adults most often feed on flower nectar, while larvae feed on insects stolen pieces of fish or meat. The lower jaws of wasps, unlike bees, did not turn into a proboscis – with the help of a powerful mouth apparatus, they kill enemies and build nests: a double pair of jaws allows them to chew wood and build paper nests from it. Contrary to popular belief, wasps are not so aggressive creatures – if you brush off a wasp that decides to ask you for food, it will fly away and most likely will not sting. If the wasp decides to attack you, it will first make a warning attack – hit you with its head, and only then sting.

Hornets are a genus of the largest representatives of social wasps.
