Excerpt from Insect Life: An Introduction to Nature-Study and a Guide for Teachers, Students, and Others Interested in Out-of-Door Life
This book was written to meet the demand for a work which will be an aid to teachers of Nature study in the public schools, students in the higher schools, and others interested in outdoor life.
Among all the classes of animals none is more available for study than insects. Their abundance make it easy to obtain specimens; they may be found wherever man can live, and at all seasons. Not only are insects numerous as individuals, but the number of species is far greater than that of all other animals taken together.
The ease with which living insects can be kept in confinement, and the smallness of the expense involved in preserving specimens, add greatly to the availability of insects as subjects for Nature study. No enterprising teacher need hesitate to undertake this study on account of lack of specimens or of apparatus; with a little encouragement the pupils will furnish these, and the teacher need not trouble the school board with requests for an appropriation.
Although at present most adults have been taught to shun insects, most children are easily interested in them.
