The perfect tool to help inspire compassion in our world's youth." --Jane Goodall, world-renowned primatologist The 20th anniversary edition of the hilarious picture book that poses the classic conundrum: To squish or not to squish? With a meaningful message about the importance of caring for creatures big and small, this is a perfect gift for Earth Day. What would you do if the ant you were about to step on looked up and started talking? Would you stop and listen? That's what happens in this funny, thought-provoking book. Originally a song by a father-daughter team, this suprising conversation between a tiny ant and a little girl is bound to inspire important discussions about caring, kindness and respect for both animals and humans. Review: A lovely book that also teaches that insects might have feelings too! - This is a lovely story. We bought it to help to teach our 3 year old daughter that every creature might have feelings and a family. It had the desired effect and inspires thought in a friendly way rather than making them question death! In hard cover and beautifully illustrated. Review: Excellent - Great story and it includes the musical notes to sing the song at the back ๐๐ป Very thought provoking story

I bought it to teach my reception class about caring for the environment during our topic about Mini Beasts. They loved the book and are all treating creepy crawlies a little more carefully.

Went down well with a little grandson who loves all sorts of creatures, but also likes to see them when they are over-played with, i.e. dead !!
