Critics Review
Packed with funny illustrations, it’s gross and fascinating in equal measure. Sure to be a hit with the kids age 7+. * The Bookseller *I honestly don’t think microbes have ever been such fun, or in fact that science and scientific facts have ever been such fun as they are in this book. Bursting at the seams with facts that will fascinate, give you cause to laugh-out-loud and stop to explore the illustrations so you can absorb as much information and detail as possible. * Armadillo Magazine *
