Product Description
Sparkling, brightly coloured Christmas beetles usually appear in the heat of December — a sign that the festive season has begun.
But recently they have been hard to find. We aren’t seeing them in the eucalyptus trees, or dancing around lights at night. These shimmering, shiny beetles are disappearing from our summers. Where have they gone?
Where Are All the Christmas Beetles? takes us on a lyrical discovery of these fascinating creatures and explores the possible reasons for their decrease in numbers.

This picture book is written in rhyme and narrated by someone who loves Christmas beetles. They discuss the life cycle and habitat of a Christmas beetle, compare them to other beetles and lament that they are harder to find this Christmas, wondering if they have been impacted by the climate and bushfires.
