Insects in Comics. Volume 1

Insects are all around us. What do they eat, how do they sleep, how do they hunt and defend themselves? Christophe Cazenove and François Vaudarzak decided to answer these and many other questions about insects, calling on all their knowledge and humor. Maintaining strict scientific principles, the authors made their six-legged characters laugh, cry, tell jokes, quote Star Wars and remember the First World War. Pictures of ruthless wars, mysterious transformations, sophisticated hunting methods and no less amazing defense techniques will unfold before you. You will learn why fireflies glow, how many dots a ladybug has on its back and what a stick insect is afraid of. And they will tell you about it themselves! Yes, one of the chapters of this book is called: “Do insects talk?” What a question - of course they do! True in its own way... Fortunately, over the years of working on this series, the authors have managed to learn the language of insects so well that they were able to flawlessly translate their colorful stories into human language! And for better assimilation of the material (which, let us remind you, is based exclusively on genuine facts), there is a test at the end of the book, all the answers to which can be found on its pages - it is enough to show a bit of attention. But that's not all! The book ends with a detailed lecture on such a, frankly speaking, burning topic for insects as mimicry and camouflage. It is important to note that the authors did not make up their own stories, and as the main speaker they invited a specialist - an ant, who approached the matter with all responsibility and even called on his friends, real professionals, to help: a blue butterfly, a birch looper, a dirty predator, a leaf-moth and many, many others. Of all people, they know their business!
