Germs Up Close by Sara Levine

Look out--this book is FULL of germs!

Have you ever seen a germ up close? Really, really close? Zoom in on a variety of viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and fungi that can make people sick--including SARS-CoV-2, E. coli, and ringworm. Micrographs and illustrations show extremely close-up views of the germs that are at once incredible and a little gross.

In this fact-filled book, award-winning science writer Sara Levine introduces readers to germs including the virus that causes COVID-19. Levine also gives scientifically proven tips for staying healthy and key facts about the immune system, vaccines, and treatment.

Germs Up Close delivers a healthy dose of accessible, up-to-date scientific information to inspire curiosity among germophobes and science lovers alike
