The Microbes that Secretly Control Our World
Written by Eleanor Spicer Rice, Illustrated by Rob Wilson
This was a surprisingly fun book! This is a fairly thick book for a younger nonfiction book (161 pages) but it is really cool. There are fun images throughout the book which help break up the information more. What I loved most about this book is the voice in this book. Rather than reading dry passages, it is written as if your favorite, fun professor were talking to you about his favorite thing ever! Full of jokes and puns–it is quite fun. The information is a little too much for elementary students (unless students are at a junior high level) but it is fun!
