I have been looking up information on insects today, prior to teaching the kids at school a bit about these fascinating creatures.
My favourite would have to be the stick insect. They are amazing in their ability to blend so well with their environment and to look exactly like the twigs and leaves that surround them. They feel all tingly on your skin when they crawl up and down your arm and some of them have really big, bubbly eyes that peer endlessly.
But, the thing that most appeals is that their shape reminds me of the shadow given off by a tall, handsome, gangly young lad with a big smile and a big heart! My son!!
