Did you know that fungi are not quite plant, not quite animal, and not quite bacteria, but a unique organism in a kingdom all of their own? Beautiful gallery-style pages showcase a fascinating world of fungi, including glow-in-dark fungi, the funky fungi that give off the strongest smell, and the most colorful fungi. Fun off-the-page activity spreads include how to make a spore print and a recipe for delicious store-bought mushrooms on toast.

With tips on mushroom identification (including the ones to avoid!), fungi-based activities to enjoy, and a guide to the most colorful and unusual mushrooms, this little book will provide hours of pleasure, both indoors and out.
