Description
Publisher's Description of Fandex Kids Bugs
Kids love bugs, and Fandex puts them right in your hands—like the bombardier beetle, which can spray its enemies with a boiling hot chemical fluid, or the tiny, pesky flea with its impressive ability to jump 100 times its size—the equivalent of a human being able to leap to the top of a 45-story building. And this deck has a special bonus: In "Learning from Nature" sidebars, kids learn how bugs inspire inventions in the fields of medicine, engineering, and even programming.
Category Description for Fandex Field Guides
So named because they are fan-like indexes with pictures (like a field guide). A new concept in field guides, these 50-card decks are permanently bolted together at the base. Instead of opening it like a book, you fan out the cards to access the "page" you need. Tops of the cards are individually and ingeniously die-cut, providing a visual of each specimen. The body of each card functions as a complete chapter of the guide, containing information about it's particular subject. Because information is contained on the front and back of each card, there's actually quite a bit of information - the rough equivalent of a small field-guide page. A helpful index at the end of each helps you quickly find the card you need. Fandex topics appear below, but see our index for more specific information about each one.
