This book serves as an educational resource aimed primarily at grade school children, focusing on the economic significance of insects, both beneficial and harmful. It intends to foster an understanding of various insect species and their roles in nature, particularly in relation to agriculture. The opening of the book lays the foundation for a comprehensive exploration of insects, emphasizing their importance in the ecosystems and agriculture. Haseman introduces readers to the characteristics of insects, their methods of development, and various insect orders. He describes how insects can be both pests that damage crops and allies that aid in pollination and pest control.
