Great Reference Guide  Mar 31, 2009
I am always curious what things are, bugs, birds, etc., and this guide works great for me. There are larger, more complete guides available, however, I have yet to find a bug I couldn't find in this text. It is small and lightweight, perfect for camping or a hike in the woods. It fits great in my glove box where it stays for fast identification.
 
Bugs in your pocket  Nov 7, 2007
Like to know what knid of insect that was but all those big heavy books are a pain to carry. This little book is just the thing for your walk or trip. It is easy to look up an insect with over 200 common insects of North America inside. It makes a great gift too, kids or adult will all enjoy this handy little book. Don't get just one!
 
Not quite what I thought it was  Nov 2, 2007
This is a great book for common name identification of a wide variety of insects. However, I could not find any scientific names; not even the names of the different orders or families.
 
Peterson First Guide to Insects of North America  Jan 28, 2007
All the Peterson Guides are well known as field guides and always useful.
 
Best beginners' guide  Dec 11, 2005
I have quite a few `bug' guides and the Peterson guides are always my favorite. The drawings are excellent, the writing is clear, and I like the behavioral and collecting notes added. There are more flashy guides with more pictures but they tend to be more limited - you can only put so many pictures in a book. They also usually cost much more. This is the book I would buy for someone wanting to learn more about the entire insect world and begin identifying the bugs they find. If their interest grows I would simply move up the full version of the same book.
