I would give this book to a child in the first grade and up.
It is easy to follow and reads like a book that their parents would read to them at bedtime. I liked that it is written in full sentences instead of conversation bubbles. The story is very cute and easy to understand. I liked that there were gnat facts shared through the illustrations. Aug 24, Arwen rated it it was amazing Shelves: Sooo much love for Diary of a Worm!

Dec 04, Emmaline MacBeath rated it it was amazing Shelves: They are the creators of the original Diary of a Worm picture book. This book is a spin off based on that book. It is written as an early reader. I love that they took great characters and turned them into something interesting for early readers. In this book, Worm's class has a pet--Nat the gnat.
When it is worm's turn to take care of Nat, he opens the tank and loses Nat. Spider helps him to capture another gnat. Worm puts this gnat into the pet's tank and confesses to the class what happened. I will not spoil the end This book is a level one reader.
The sentences are short and simple for easy reading. Yet there is a sprinkling of harder concepts to stretch the reader. The story is from Worm's perspective which makes it interesting and has plenty of humor to enjoy. This story is even better than the first in this series. If more leveled readers were this interesting, I think more kids would be chomping at the bit to read!
Feb 26, Elizabeth Houchen rated it it was amazing Shelves: This book was enjoyable to read because the worm writes his own diary. He writes in his journal about school, his friend Spider, his mom,dad, and sister. He tells about how he wants to be a secret service agent one day.
He ate his homework and had to write "I will not eat my homework" 10 times but he ate that too. I think the message for this short story was basically that the worm is small but he is still very important to the world.
