Book Description
Microscopic Monsters introduces a world of real monsters. Monsters that are invisible to the naked eye. Monsters that live among us in forests, oceans and clothes, in our beds, on our skin and inside our bodies. But you should not judge them by their looks, many of them are our friends. Microscopic Monsters is a coloring book for the brave. We plunge into a world where no creature looks as if it is part of the world we are used to. Here, we find the smallest organisms: mites, bacteria and viruses. Some have long, hairy legs and scales, others tusks and jaws you have only encountered in your worst nightmares. In Microscopic Monsters, these tiny organisms have been blown up to A4-size, but they are still full of details just waiting to be colored in. Don't hesitate to take a closer look at the good and bad monsters that are everywhere among us.

More astonishing than the data and facts are the amazingly up-close photographs on each page. Readers may squirm, but they’ll also come to appreciate the remarkable habitat called the human body.
