Add a CommentThis book is packed with all sorts of bizarre and wonderful stories and facts about insects' relationship to humans. Worth reading about cricket fighting, insect pandemonium, and finding common ground between two very different species. There are some interesting personal experiences that ties really well with each chapter's topics: the good, the bad, and the ugly.
