2024 ALA Notable Children's Book 2024 Texas 2x2 Reading List 2023 Chicago Public Library Best Informational Books for Younger Readers 2023 Blueberry Honor Award 2024 Bank Street Best Children's Books of the YearSTARRED REVIEW "Fliess informs while maintaining a light, adoring tone that reveals cicadas' remarkableness."--Publishers Weekly starred reviewEeee-ooo Eeee-ooo Cicadas drone on, clicking and buzzing from dusk till dawn. There are about three thousand different kinds of cicadas on earth. Some species emerge from the ground every year, while others only come up every thirteen or seventeen years. But no matter how much time passes before they dig their way to the surface, the result is the same: up to trillions of clumsy (but harmless ) insects flying, clicking, and buzzing all around us. Using a combination of rhythmic, rhyming verse and fun facts, this story describes the life cycle of the cicada and helps readers better understand this fascinating insect.
