Critics Review
“An excellent resource for students with school assignments, budding scientists and curious minds.” – M H Alessandrino * Books+Publishing *“This terrific book gives us an eye-opening lesson about these minute living things. Written in an engaging way children will love the facts and young budding scientists will be encouraged to get out the microscope. Even I can’t stoptalking about tardigrades at the dinner table.” – Rowena Morcom * Good Reading Magazine *“Blending information with an engaging text is a very admirable skill, and doing that in a way that will capture children’s imaginations is even more of a skill. This does both excellently” – Sue Warren * Just So Stories *
