But these little fellows that have pestered us since our humble beginnings getting trampled by mammoths help us too. Microbes whip up yogurt cheese and delicious teas; clean up oil spills; help us digest our banquets of burgers and chocolate chip cookies; and defend our bodies from less-welcome germs; and connect us with the natural world. </span></p><p><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(54 54 54 1)>Written by a teenage science whiz </span><em style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(54 54 54 1)>A Hodgepodge of Microbes: A Journey into the Marvelous World of Microorganisms</em><span style=background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1); color: rgba(54 54 54 1)> bridges the gap between baby science and musty textbook biology. Kids (or curious adults) will laugh at the antics of amoeba gawk at the parasites that halted some of the greatest construction projects in history and learn to thank their own personal cast of microbes. With vibrant cartoons and a vivacious rollicking tone this book opens a portal into the beautiful realm of microbes for everyone.</span></p><p></p>
