Beetle Boy

In BEETLE BOY, the first book in M.G. Leonard’s trilogy, Darkus Cuttle’s dad mysteriously disappears from a sealed room in the Natural History Museum, leaving Darkus to move in with his eccentric uncle, Max. His quest to find out what happened to his dad takes a mysterious turn when he discovers a beetle infestation in the house across the street. The beetles have almost human abilities to communicate with him, and one rhinoceros beetle (later named Baxter) refuses to leave his side and becomes Darkus’ pet. Darkus is befriended by two other smart misfits at school who help him stand up to bullies, and the loyal trio, with their insect friends, take on the terrifying villain who kidnapped his dad for mysterious reasons.
