Why would anyone, let alone a girl, want to study and observe them? One of the first naturalists to observe live insects directly, Maria Sibylla Merian was also one of the first to document the metamorphosis of the butterfly.

Robert F. Sibert Medal winner Bugs, of all kinds, were considered to be "born of mud" and to be "beasts of the devil." Why would anyone, let alone a girl, want to study and observe them? One of the first naturalists to observe live insects directly, Maria Sibylla Merian was also one of the first to document the metamorphosis of the butterfly. In this visual nonfiction biography, richly illustrated throughout with full-color original paintings by Merian herself, the Newbery Honor-winning author Joyce Sidman paints her own picture of one of the first female entomologists and a woman who flouted convention in the pursuit of knowledge and her passion for insects.

Amazing
Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige
I ended up buying one for my granddogs. My boys which are tough on toys have had theirs two or three years. That means this is a high quality product

Durable for extreme chewers
Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige
My dog loves this and he is an extreme chewer and after a week this thing is still holding up fine. My only complaint is that when I opened it, it smelled HORRIBLE and it almost became an outside toy. It’s seriously so gross...

Not for very aggressive chewers
Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige
My dogs are aggressive chasers and although strong they are whittling them away pretty quickly.

Too small for a lab retriever
Size: For Large & Medium dogs, Color: beige
If you have a large dog, I would not advise buying this item. It is very small. I was concerned about choking. My dog loved chewing on it and it is good quality, but I had to monitor constantly and tossed it the 2nd day due to choking fears. Great, if you have a smaller dog, but not good for lab retriever size!
