(4) 4-6 Up Close and Gross: Microscopic Creatures series. Colorful photographs and diagrams of enlarged organisms are paired with squirm-inducing texts to present an accessible look at the (nearly) microscopic world around us. The information is succinct but a little sparse; a bit more depth would round out the volumes. While the casual reader might focus on the "grossness," budding microbiologists will pore over the up-close images. Reading list. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these Up Close and Gross: Microscopic Creatures titles: Creepy Backyard Invaders, Disgusting Food Invaders, Gross Body Invaders, and Icky House Invaders.
