Critics Review
In praise of SLIME
“Can a book on slime be delightful? This one is: delightfully gross, icky and disgusting but also informative, hands-on and a joy to read. This is the perfect gift for kids who want to know more, look deeper - and keep the whole family entertained. I loved it.”
Susanne Wedlich, author of Slime: A Natural History
