Cool non-fiction book about bugs, has a 3D viewer to see bugs at a different angle, great for all aged readers.

This book features an ingenious fold out 3D viewer with pages shaped to present a different stereoscopic view on each opening. The device, or gimmick, works quite well. A notch for the nose allows even very small children to orient their eyes correctly to see the pictures. {In passing, I should mention that the illustrations, including the 3D views, are not photographs but artwork which appears either painted or heavily Photoshopped.} However, the author's insistence on referring to every kind of arthropod as BUGS became somewhat grating after awhile. I am admittedly a geek and a pedant, but although I taught my children to recognize and refer to only Hemiptera as bugs, I can allow for the tendency in casual speech to call all insects bugs and I even refer to pillbugs "but they're crustaceans really, kids" and ladybugs "...beetles". This author, however, refers to bugs on every page. Spiders are bugs. Scorpions are bugs. It becomes unsettling. Not so much reading it oneself, but reading the golly-gee-whiz factoid-heavy text {"no bug scares more people than the spider"} to small children and feeling that one was simply confusing them about the phylum Arthropoda.
