Bugs Supplementary Notes

Teacher Notes

This is a teacher guide to support the junior fiction novel Bugs by Whiti
Hereaka. Bugs is about the unfolding lives of three young people in their last year of school in small-town New Zealand. Life is slow, and it seems not much happens in town or in Jez and Bugs’s lives. But when Stone Cold arrives, the three come to different conclusions about how to deal with being trapped in a small town and at the bottom of the heap.
