Robert F. Sibert Medal winner Bugs, of all kinds, were considered to be "born of mud" and to be "beasts of the devil." Why would anyone, let alone a girl, want to study and observe them? One of the first naturalists to observe live insects directly, Maria Sibylla Merian was also one of the first to document the metamorphosis of the butterfly. In this visual nonfiction biography, richly illustrated throughout with full-color original paintings by Merian herself, the Newbery Honor-winning author Joyce Sidman paints her own picture of one of the first female entomologists and a woman who flouted convention in the pursuit of knowledge and her passion for insects.

15 Pack (WA0010)Replacement Trimmer Line Spool C
This weed eater trimmer line is pretty tough. Although there was only 12 spools in the box, but the Description says 15 spools, And this trimmer line is a lot tougher than the previous line I was using. I used very little of it on the first spool, which is great these Worx trimmer line spools fit perfectly and function perfectly this is a great product to purchase, and I will highly recommend them. if you just have a small amount of weed eating to do I would recommend getting these spools for your worx weed eater.
