The Girl Who LOVES Bugs

A beautifully written and illustrated story which has become a firm favourite in our house. We especially loved that the book was based on a real entomolgist and the tips for building your own houses for bugs. I’ve purchased the book to give as a gift (with a big hotel!) for two of my daughter’s friends and have just ordered ‘A Dress with Pockets’. Can’t recommend enough 😊

My 3 yo daughter loves this book. I love how it is a strong young girl character, bucking the normal stereotype for little girls but in a causal way. I think the parents might also be LGBTQ+ as they are two women I think, which again I think is a lovely way to show different families exist but without having to overtly spell it out. Have bought this book for other friends as gifts.

Beautifully illustrated book and the text flows brilliantly at story time. Nice to see a girl loving bugs rather than the stereotypical boy in most stories. My 4yr old son loves this book and is now desperate to go to the natural history museum to see Evelyn Cheesman’s bug collection (who this book about Evie is based on)

I like this - nicely illustrated, interesting and a nice story.

Quickly delivery, lovely quality

The book is beautifully illustrated, it was a gift for a little girl who also loves bugs and creepy crawlies. Her name is also Evie, the book was a well appreciated present 🎁 5 stars 🌟 from me .

Bought because of advertising. Very disappointed. Didn't enjoy.

This is a fabulous book - my granddaughter who really lives mini beasts really rnjoyed

A charming book about a sweet, smart girl who loves bugs from the author/illustrator team of A Dress With Pockets. This gets read over and over in our house. I think this book is intended for a child who is older, but we read it to a 22 month old. I think she’ll enjoy it for years to come.

So cute!! Our bug loving toddler is obsessed with this book. The charming rhyming story has been quickly and easily memorised for our 19 month old. Colourful and fun illustrations. We loved reading a little about the Evelyn who inspired this story. We will definitely be buying more books from Lily Murray!

Good quality book perfect for preschoolers, especially those that love bugs! Book arrived on time and in perfect condition.

The media could not be loaded. Beautiful illustration, just not quite what we were looking for.
