Debbie Harter is the illustrator of the popular Bear series and the best-selling The Animal Boogie (2000), which won an Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal, 2001. Her other titles include Herb, The Vegetarian Dragon (1999), Cooking with Herb (1999), Thesaurus Rex (2003) and Walking Through the Jungle (2004). She has recently moved from Sydney, Australia, back to her native Cornwall.

Jump and jive with this jolly band of insects to the creepy crawly calypso beat! From spiders to fireflies, butterflies to centipedes, Debbie Harter's humorous illustrations perfectly match the Caribbean spirit of this jaunty rhyming text, which introduces children to cardinal and ordinal numbers - and takes them straight into the marvellous world of mini-beasts!
