Q: Did you take all of the photos in Don’t Squash That Bug?
A: I wish!  No, these photos were done by professional photographers.  My editor showed me many photos and I got to help pick out which would work best on each spread.  Then I needed to write captions for each photo, giving more information on that insect.  I also had an entomologist and museum curator view the photos and help to make sure the captions were accurate.
