Delightful tale for the curious child and adult alike . . .
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Ms. Shreeve's book is a wonderful and imaginative tale about the adventures of a wumblebug. In this delightful story, the wumblebug learns about his neighbors and matures through his experiences. Whereas some books for children are boring for the parents, this book is equally entertaining as a charming story for children and a fable for adults. Highly recommended.
We love Hector!!

We love Hector the wumblebug! This is a fun story that really paints a great picture of what it would be like to be a bug! The author puts a lot of the natural world into the story so you learn about real bugs that live with the imaginary wumblebug. My kid loved this and the other book "Hector finds a Fortune" - we hope there are more Hector adventures to come. A good read aloud or early reader. We did both in my house

My family is so glad we found Hector the Wumblebug!! These two books tell the adventures of this little bug and also give a great feeling for what it might be like to live in a bugs world. The author has a great way of talking about the natural world and still telling a story! My kid loves these books and we hope there will be more adventures of Hector. Good read aloud for a young one or excellent early reader. We did both in my house!
Great book for younger kids!

I am a school librarian and have been reading Hector Springs Loose to my second and third graders. They love it! Not only is it very funny, but it gives kids a lot of useful information about insects. A wonderful read-aloud, as well as an excellent chapter book for emerging readers. The other Hector book in the series is just as fun.
