A lovely story about a bug who loves to read and becomes the hero by saving an elementary school library. A few cute illustrations accompany the story, with an adorable family of bugs and an element of adventure, while celebrating the love of reading, fun and childhood memories.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

**An ARC of this book was provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review**

While certainly not a terrible book, it simply wasn't doing anything for me. Mostly I think it was the tween-angst and the fact that the plot goes practically nowhere till page 250. But the ghosts were the best part of the book and a rather fun bunch, and the ending was lovely.

Full review to come closer to publication.
