“This short, introductory picture book on mushrooms delights with its bizarre facts and charming illustrations. The title concept will fascinate readers with the idea that baby mushrooms help make rain, which in turn makes optimal growing conditions for fungus…The story arc cleverly navigates the life cycle of a mushroom, starting with the visible evidence of the fruiting body and moving to the hidden white threads of mycelium which act as a sort of stomach of the forest floor."

What can smell like bubble gum, glow neon green at night, be poisonous and yet still eaten by humans, and even help create rain? The answer is mushrooms! From their hidden networks underground to the fruiting body above, mushrooms can do incredible things. But don't call them plants--mushrooms are fungi. They're more closely related to animals like you! Through lyrical text and colorful, detailed artwork, the wonderful, mysterious, and sometimes bizarre world of mushrooms is explored. Back matter includes a glossary, additional mushroom facts, and a science activity.
