Check out the book (or audiobook) Endless Forms by Seirian Sumner! It’s a fascinating exploration of the different kinds of wasps and their role in their environments. For example, some figs can only be polite (typo: pollinated) but a certain species of wasp and some wasps use antibacterial compounds to coat their nests.
That depends. How indepth is it? Are there pictures? I ask because I generally don’t like bugs. They give me the heebie-jeeies. Especially big insects or swarms of insects. Which is a shame because they are fascinating creatures regardless.
I honestly have no idea if there are pictures because I listened to it, but it does have a pretty accessible breakdown of their anatomy, physiology, and evolutionary biology. Like David Attenborough, but with more words instead of video, and more of the author’s story.

Hard to tell if honest typos or just an AI
Honest typo. I keep using the swipe keyboard even though it sucks
