Erik and Ernie – The Bughouse

A Garden Building Project for the Smallest Neighbours

The tool shed is full of unexpected residents. Erik and Ernie gather their friends to build a bug house with room for beetles, spiders and plenty more.

Full Product Description

Something is stirring in the tool shed, and Ernie wants to know what it is.

Inside, beetles, spiders and woodlice have made themselves comfortable among the tools. Erik has an idea: the garden gang could build them a place of their own. Before long, everyone is gathering sticks, leaves, moss and other natural materials for a rather unusual construction project.

Logs become hiding places. Hollow canes and pinecones fill the gaps. Ernie wants their creation to be the finest bug house in the garden, and even Lofty’s crash landing produces something useful for the build.

In Erik and Ernie: The Bug House, a crowded shed becomes the starting point for a rhyming adventure about making space for small creatures. Young readers follow the friends as they work together and watch the new residents explore their shelter.

An engaging choice for children who like peering under logs, spotting tiny garden visitors or imagining what they might build from a pile of sticks.
