Recenzii
"An excellent bug-ginner's guide to the world of entomophagy. Young readers will learn something new on every page." Daniella Martin, author of Edible: An Adventure into the World of Eating Insects and the Last Great Hope to Save the Planet
"Mary Boone's Bugs for Breakfast offers a fun and fascinating history of entomophagy, including the current global thought evolution happening around waysand reasons whyto increase humans' use of insects as a food source. Young readers will gleefully cringe at the cavalcade of 'icky' facts and be inspired to not only spread the word about the benefits of eating bugs but also to experiment with doing so at home. This book will appeal to kids interested in world history, animals, fun facts, food and cooking, sustainability, climate change, and activism." Lisa L. Owens, author of The Life Cycle of a Ladybug
" Bugs for Breakfast is a f-ANT-astic blend of fun and facts that will inspire readers to not only #EatBugs but also think about how humans live on the planet and what improvements we can make for ourselves and others around the world. This is a comprehensive yet accessible resource that includes recipes, a guide to raising crickets at home, and even science fair project ideas. Bugs for Breakfast is a tasty treat that goes well with everything from French flies to maggot-aroni and cheese to bee-ritoes. Bug appetit!" Rebecca Petruck, author of Boy Bites Bug

"Mary Boone weaves a smart and convincing case for trying something a little different in our daily lives. From her very first words right to the end, I was both captivated and entertained, and with each chapter I couldn't wait to find out what I would learn. I highly recommend Bugs for Breakfast ." Dana L. Church, author of The Beekeepers

With thorough research and friendly prose, Boone makes the case for living lighter on the planet and feeding a growing world by including insects in the modern diet. Then she provides recipes and a DIY cricket-growing manual.
