The creatures? Pine processionary caterpillars with mysterious group habits. The people? Jean Henri Fabre and, many years later, Terrence Fitzgerald--scientists with big questions about the behavior of these caterpillars. And the conversations? The conversations span lifetimes, as one researcher continues a dialogue started by the other. In this playful, candid, and accessible book for young readers, biologist Loree Griffin Burns captures the unique leader-follower behavior of pine processionary caterpillars through a glimpse into the \"ask, test, repeat\" nature of the scientific process--and shows how that process creates one long line of questioning and learning. Back matter includes more details about the two scientists as well as a glossary, bibliography, source notes, and suggestions for further reading.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLoree Griffin Burns\u003c\/b\u003e is a biologist and the author of many nonfiction books for children, including \u003ci\u003eHoneybee Rescue: A Backyard Drama, \u003c\/i\u003eillustrated by Ellen Harasimowicz, and \u003ci\u003eLife on Surtsey: Iceland's Upstart Island\u003c\/i\u003e.
