Review Detail

The Mighty Pollinators zooms in for a close look at the insects that help pollinate flowers. The photographs are wonderful to look closely at the common pollinators that drive our ecosystem. The words are poetic and convey a sense of wonder and precious duty that these creatures perform in helping flowers reproduce. This book would be a lovely addition to a study of flowers, insects, and ecosystems. The back matter gives more scientific explanations about what the insects are doing to help plants and the reason that is important to help protect them. There could have been more emphasis on the dangers of weedkillers the crisis that bees are in and the implications to our wellbeing but that would have detracted from the joyful exploration that this book highlighted for young readers.
