    FROM SARAH:

    A well-written picture book biography about Charles Herny Turner and his fascination with bugs.

    FROM THE PUBLISHER:

    Can spiders learn? How do ants find their way home? Can bugs see color? All of these questions buzzed endlessly in Charles Henry Turner’s mind. He was fascinated by plants and animals and bugs. And even when he faced racial prejudice, Turner did not stop wondering. He constantly read, researched, and experimented.
