Into Bugs

Ladybug

by David L. Harrison

Is it a

boy?


Is it a

girl?


To me

it looks

like neither.


I wonder

if a ladybug


can

tell the

difference

either.

My son’s into bugs these days. Two weeks ago he was catching ladybugs with his bug collector set. Now he’s looking around for a praying mantis. With his magnifying glass he’s examined a rolly polly, a fly, and another insect we can’t identify.  (Of course I did most of the bug catching.) For bedtime he asks me to read the poems of David L. Harrison in the book, “Bugs – poems about creeping things”. Isn’t it wonderful to be a child?

    I hear you. Only it isn’t so wonderful when the bugs escape in the bedroom, like countless numbers of Woog’s spiders have.

    Also, love your pictures. This one is great!
