Book Description
for Ant, Ant, Ant by April Pulley Sayre and Trip Park
From the Publisher
An evocation of an army ant parade set in the rain forest.
One morning there is a strange stillness in the forest. A few birds call. There is a rustling, like rain. Suddenly insects scurry into view. The army ants are coming!
They swarm over the ground in a thick stream, searching for food. Antbirds follow them to eat the insects that flee from the swarm. Most animals escape the army ant attack, but one frog isn't so lucky: it becomes a meal. The hungry army ants move on, and soon the forest is quiet again.
Simple, evocative text and vibrant illustrations capture the drama and excitement of an army ant parade.
