More Description Ant on the Run is an adventure story that teaches children about insects and other tiny creatures, in an interesting way that will hold the attention of the child. The creatures in the book face the sorts of dangers each day that would make humans heroes. The story tells of a bond between three unlikely friends, that other animals in their world find hard to understand. One of the friends, an arrogant sugar ant who is a prince, discovers that he has to leave the nest in a hurry. The ant in this story (Aaron), and his two friends (Lucy, a caterpillar who matches wits with Aaron, and Zack, a kind hearted skink) flee from the nest and its huge soldier ants. Their journey takes them through many adventures, and they meet some unusual creatures along the way before finding their new home. But finding this home results in Zack having to face his greatest fear.
