The Bug House Family Restaurant serves up a delightful platter of poems featuring all kinds of creepy crawlers prepared by the finest chefs. Try our mosquito steak and order a Centipede-Ade to wash it down. How about our chocolate-covered ants for dessert?
"Brenna has written a hilarious book of poetry...Mongeau adds to the fun of the book with humorous black-and white illustrations."
– Winnipeg Free Press
"Brenna’s lyrics are short, regular of meter and rhyme scheme and more easily digestible than most of the food...Tasty and, as bugs show signs of becoming even more common menu items in the near future, timely too."
– Kirkus Reviews
"[Mongeau's] illustrations help evoke the imagination and may elicit a few 'eeeeewwwws' and lots of laughs...Ths book would be excellent to use in a classroom as the content is engaging and offers a variety of examples of what a poem can look like.Hihly Recommended."
– CM Magazine
"The illustrations are as zany as the poems and will delight readers and listeners."
