Reviews for Germs

“A lively way for children to come to terms with germs… Offers nuggets of unforgettable wisdom, while laying down some vital scientific groundwork… A 10-minute masterclass in microbiology, aimed at readers as young as four… [reducing] the most complex subjects to easy peasy ideas.” --The Telegraph
