Ask Dr. K. Fisher About Creepy-Crawlies

BOOK NAME: Ask Dr. K. Fisher About Creepy-Crawlies
AUTHOR: Claire Llewellyn

 
Ask Dr. Fisher book coverCreepy-Crawlies is an interesting book about how a bird named Dr. K. Fisher fixes the problems of other creatures. Some pages of the book are written as letters to Dr. Fisher and the opposite pages are the bird's letters back.

One of the letters is from a hover fly who says he gets pollen all over him when he drinks nectar from flowers. Dr. Fisher tells him that it's good for him to pick up pollen and to spread it from flower to flower because it helps the flowers make seeds. Other letters are from a scorpion, glowworm, stick bug, earthworm, millipede and caterpillar.

Other pages of the book are guides to different facts about insects, like their many disguises and wings.

What is really cool is about the book is that on the very first page there's a real envelope that you can open with a real letter inside from Dr. K. Fisher to you.

I've never read a book like this. I like it a lot. What I really like about it is how the bird sends notes back to different bugs to help them out and she writes about bug facts that are really, really cool.

Hey Crocks04, do you watch a show called Big Bang Theory? It's about nerds. It's HILARIOUS! Mythbusters is also funny! :)

Whoa spock9, isn't that like an adult show? Oh well, I have a friend who loves "Seinfeld". Anyway, I'll probably read this, because I love birds. oh, and this is unrelated, but READ THE ARTEMIS FOWL BOOKS BY EOIN COLFER! THANK YOU! GOOD NIGHT! Or day. It's not night yet.

Not alowwed to watch Big Bang theory and I dont want to lol but I've seen a few mythbusters and they're pretty good! Butdid you watch the SuperBowl? IT WAS AMAZING! Especially the commercials! My favorite is the Pepsuber one!

Big Bang Theory is very funny. I like it when Mythbusters explodes things. Guess what? I have a chance to go to a summer science camp at a college ON A SCHOLARSHIP!!! It's very cool! Bye!
