For a colony of green weaver ants, building nests is a family affair. Even the baby ants, or larvae, have work to do!
These ants do not live underground. They make their home sweet amazing home in a tree. Working as a team, the colony stitches together leaves. But what do they use as thread? The silk that's produced by the colony's larvae.

  • Meet a green weaver ant colony, its queen, and the 500,000 busy workers.
  • Learn how the ants move from place to place foraging for food and build new homes wherever they settle.
  • And marvel at their leafy nests that look just like a patchwork quilt!
Readers will be astounded by these clever animal builders and will love the beautiful, close-up photos that show these tiny insects at work.

Green Tree Ant’s New Nest is an engaging nonfiction book perfect for young readers and newly independent readers. The use of real photographs brings the content to life and provides a fascinating look into the lives of green tree ants. My favorite fact was learning that the green tree ants tickle the larvae until they emit the sticky silk used to weave tree leaves together for their home. The sentence structure, word count, and word choices are perfect for young learners. The glossary in the back gives additional help for content-specific words. Overall, this is an engaging read perfect for young readers and ant fans.
