My interest in insects

Since I was a little girl I was always running up to my dad and showing various types of insects that I had found in the garden. I even had a pet spider who lived outside. I often kept spiders and scorpions, and then fell in love with Spiny Leaf Insects. Any science project i had was often on some sort of insect and i loved just learning about them. i ever 'borrowed' dads insect books which to this day, haven't been returned! So if there's anyone i should thank for my love of insects, it's him!
