Why read it?

2 authors picked Beetle Bop as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

They bop and bring joy...especially if they stay inside of the pages of this book.

From Dandi's list on rhyming books for animal-loving kids.

Be reintroduced to our six-legged friends in this delightful and energizing tale!
