Book
The charming story of a tiny beetle who is able to reach great heights.

Redd scurried to the punch bowl for a cool drink. The cups were bigger than he was, but he was too thirsty to care.

Redd is small, even for a beetle. He's too small to reach the mailbox, too small to fly, too small even to dance at the famous Boll Weevil Ball. But when Redd sets his mind on something, nothing can stop him.

Starring a very small but hugely determined beetle, this charming picture book proves that little people -- or insects -- can do great things.
