The book I read with Mr Garcia is called Stick Insects. The māori name for stick insects is rō. Stick insects eat leaves. Stick insects have antennae on their head and another name for antennae is feelers.
The life cycle of a stick insect;
stick insects hatch from small eggs - a young stick insect is called a Nymph - Nymphs change their skin when they grow and that is called moulting - a female adult stick insect lays eggs and the cycle starts all over again.
