Germ Stories by Arthur Kornberg
Over the years, Nobel laureate Arthur Kornberg regaled his children and grandchildren with rhyming tales of the tiny beasties in the germ parade. Arthur's witty and charming poems and stories are now available for all in this beautifully rendered children's picture book. Germ Stories will bring the microscopic world to life for the very youngest readers and grown ups alike with its richly imaginative narrations and its vividly rendered art and color photos.
"'A delight to adult and child' - Nature 'Humorous yet informative.' - Science 'The Publisher does not guarantee Nobels for all of the children to whom this book is read, but about one in three of them should make it.' - Hal Harris, J. Chem. Ed."
