Reviews:
School Library Journal: "...happily animated, set to music, and performed in a rap style for this fun production. The bouncy, rhyming text is delightfully suited to this format. (Included is) a 'Bug-o-Meter' game that would be fun to play as a class...A terrific extension for primary teachers doing bug units."
AudioFile: "The text is set to a jaunty tune with vocals that capture the energy of the book's vibrant, multitextured collage illustrations…A meet 'Meet the Bugs' informational piece appears as an afterword…to this infectious read-along."
Video Librarian: "A lively and colorful animated adaptation. Recommended."
Catholic Library World: "Filled with the colorful paper colllage illustrations of the book, the simple cutout animation effectively shows the busy activitites of a variety of insects. Future entomologists will be buggy for this one!"
