(IT3,4) I think that the author statistics help the story but I don't now what the word statistics. I look up the word and statistics help the story because it talk about insects and I think that the person who writing this book is a scientist. The author statistics what he or she said with data and pictures. Yes, I did find the author evidence convincing because a lot of this the author said in the book I had alright know. But also there was some thing that I learn read this book.
