Reviews
In an overview of "peculiar, pulsating creatures" that are too small to be seen with the naked eye, the appropriately named Mould keeps his eye on the ick factor as he dishes out basic facts about the viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, archaea, and "micro animals" with which we share the planet. He also describes how diseases are caught and spread, explains how our immune system works, and, backed by a closing timeline, covers the development of microbiology and antibiotics.... Memorable insights into the invisible world. (glossary, index) (Nonfiction. 7-10) -- Kirkus Reviews "While Mould definitely promotes the yuck factor, he moderates it with humor... Just watch the grubby fingers reach for this one. " --Booklist " The Bacteria Book is an expert blend of visual and written information. There are lots of great attention-grabbing photos, with short blocks of text, and sidebars filled with arresting facts...Like all the best non-fiction books, it informs, entertains, and astounds. Highly recommended " --GeekDad.com

Meet the bacteria, viruses, and other microbes that are all around us, but are too small for us to see. This book explains bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other microbes simply for kids aged 7-9 by bestselling author and science communicator Steve Mould. What do glowing squid, moldy bread, and soil creatures all have in common? They're all part of the world of microbiology! In this awesome introductory book for budding scientists, the big world of tiny organisms is revealed with remarkable photography, kooky characters, and lots of fun facts. This fascinating biology book for kids offers: - An introduction to STEAM by well-known science author Steve Mould. - A new and updated edition featuring the latest information on pandemics and COVID-19, and vaccines. - A look into not just bacteria, but viruses, fungi and other microbes too! The Bacteria Book is a fun and informative introduction to a STEAM subject that brings kids up-close with microbiology, and young scientists won't want to put it down. Children can learn about how miniature life forms affect our world, for good and bad, through real-life examples of microbes in action. Bacteria are some of the most important organisms on Earth, and without them our bodies wouldn't be able to work. Fungi are used to make bread and cheese. Viruses and other germs can make us ill, but are fought by our amazing immune system. All these stories and more are told in clear and engaging language by bestselling author and science comedian Steve Mould.
