Synopsis
Did you know that for every pound of people on earth, there are 300 pounds of insects? Or that millions of years ago some of these bugs actually weighed that much? Well, during prehistoric times, before dinosaurs ruled the earth, bugs did; and just like today the seas, skies, and lands were covered by these creepy-crawlers. There were dragonflies with wings that reached a yard across in length, and millipedes that grew to over six feet long But what is even more fascinating is the fact that all of these creatures in some form or another learned to adapt and survive to become the insects and sea beasts of today. In this fully illustrated picture book, readers will be captivated by the detailed information of prehistoric insects, arachnids, and their relatives. Chock-full of facts about fossil formation, insect evolution, flight theories, and geologic time, Bugs Before Time will mesmerize entomologists of all ages. Author Cathy Camper's absorbing text, and artist Steve Kirk's extraordinary paintings combine to re-create a world where giants reigned., Did you know that for every pound of people on earth, there are 300 pounds of insects?

- o***n (804)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis book was one of three I ordered together on 11 Feb. 2025. They were shipped out together on 13 Feb. 2025... since that time, more than 2 months ago, neither of the books have arrived. I contacted Ebay, who told me to contact this seller directly. I did so & got a full refund, fairly quickly, on all 3 books. This was the first time I have never received an order from Thrift Books. Thank you for the Full Refund... a Canadian Customer.

The seller gave me a good quality product for a great price that was brand new and appeared to be better than what was pictured. I plan on purchasing more products in the near future from this seller. The product was shipped and packaged with care and love. Magnificent communication and all of what I said makes this seller a great asset to the eBay community as well as the marketplace.
