Crickwing Paperback - 2005
by Janell Cannon; Janell Cannon (Illustrator)
This Children's Book-of-the-Month Club Main Selection--now in paperback--tells the story of a lonely cockroach who has a creative idea that saves the day for the leafcutter ants when their fierce forest enemies attack them. Full color.
Summary
Crickwing never set out to be a bully--he wanted only to create his art in peace. But the little cockroach is an easy target for the bigger creatures in the forest. In his frustration he decides to even the score by bullying the leafcutter ants. They're just so easy to pick on.
Big mistake. Nobody angers the leafcutter queen and gets away with it.
Big mistake. Nobody angers the leafcutter queen and gets away with it.
First line
Far below the great forest canopy lies a shadowy world that many insects call home.
