Edge Books: Tiny Creepy Creatures series.
These introductory books present their microscopic subjects accurately if briefly, leaning heavily on the sensational to attract attention, such as "Ewww Fact!" comments. Each volume has several short chapters, e.g., "Food Poisoning." Although harmful microbes are emphasized, helpful ones are also noted. Colorful photos and microphotographs--all well-documented--on busy backgrounds illustrate the information. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Edge Books: Tiny Creepy Creatures titles: Food Intruders and Body Bugs.
