$6.18The Story
Germs, microbes, bacteria—these days those words are fraught with fear and uncertainty. But they’re not all bad. Most of them make life and nature possible. Christian Borstlap’s playful, boldly coloured illustrations and cheerful text will help kids understand that microbes are everywhere—in our noses and tummies, in the food we eat, and in the air, we breathe. From the world’s largest organism in Oregon’s Blue Mountains to the bacteria that started life on earth; from microbes that help recycle plastic, to yeast that makes bread taste good—this book shows the incredible diversity of these tiny beings and how they affect every aspect of our lives. Borstlap uses science and humour to demystify a potentially scary subject and closes with double-page spreads packed with information to satisfy the most curious readers.
