Amy Stewart Presentation & Book Signing on Sunday, October 8, 2011 – 12:00 pm, at the Heritage Museum of Orange County.
Join author Amy Stewart for a darkly comical look at the sinister side of our relationship with the insect world. In this talk based on her latest New York Times bestseller, Wicked Bugs, you’ll meet creatures that infest, infect, and generally wreak havoc on human affairs. From the world’s most painful hornet, to the flies that transmit deadly diseases, to millipedes that stop traffic, to the “bookworms” that devour libraries, to the Japanese beetles munching on your roses, Wicked Bugs delves into the extraordinary power of six and eight-legged creatures.
