As an Assameese, i.e., from Assam (a northeastern state in India), silkworms are part of our ethnic cuisine. I was delighted they were featured in this wonderful children's book that sheds light on a valuable natural food source that perhaps hasn't been considered a mainstream delicacy in Western society until now. Gloria G. Adams finds a fun way to share the secrets of entomophagy with this colorful children's book, Munch! Crunch! Bugs for Lunch! Using an engaging writing style, Adams provides information on all the types of bugs you can eat and helps you do your part in conserving the environment.
