1.0 out of 5 stars Great Title, Not Much Else, August 21, 2000

By	Alexandra Mironov (South San Francisco, CA USA) - See all my reviews

Eat This Bug was a huge disappointment. It's main fault is that it contains very little detailed information. There are some nice pictures in this book, a list of insects that are suitable for feeding reptiles and amphibians and not much else. There is no discussion of reptile and amphibian nutrition, little information on how to care for your insects once you get them home, little or no information on culturing your own insects, and no information about the suitability of different insects as food for different reptiles and amphibians. The book is so simplistic, it seems to be written for children. It was a big waste of my time and money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Eat this Bug: A Guide to Invertebrate Live Foods, April 4, 2004

By	Lori G. Williams (Excelsior Springs, Missouri United States) - See all my reviews

At $9.95 I thought this book was way overpriced. It is 8.5 x 5.5 inches, a paperback with stapled spine. Only 58 pages of content, and each of those is half printed with text. Black and white illustrations are few and of low quality. Information is only rudimentary, but accurate. I would recommend those interested in this topic to look anywhere else!

3.0 out of 5 stars Reptiles foods made easy, March 26, 2001

By	warren picket (california) - See all my reviews

This book is a simple guide to finding and keeping live foods for herp pets. A good source of info about suppliers of hard to find items in the appendix. If you want to raise your own insects, this is a good place to start.

I found this book listed among recommend books on the Sithsonian Natural History Museum site. There are very few books on reptile care recommended by the Sithsonian. Read more
