Sixth grader Amanda Price adores all things bug-related—from spiders to mantises. Unfortunately, her classmates are grossed out by her invertebrate obsession. Especially Amanda's ex-best friend, Emily, who thinks Amanda is creepy weird.

But when mysterious invaders menace the town of Oyster Cove and take both Amanda and Emily's mothers captive, Amanda unexpectedly develops amazing insectile powers! Newly equipped with antennae and a glistening exoskeleton, Amanda has to act fast or her town and her mom are doomed! There's just one complication . . . she needs Emily's help.

Suddenly Amanda's worst enemy becomes her best ally, but working together may be even harder than saving their town from being squashed like a . . . well . . . BUG GIRL. Sarah Hines Stephens and Benjamin Harper's Bug Girl is a funny and action-packed superhero adventure filled with green illustrations and sidebars featuring real bug facts!
