Majdi Osman: Meena and the Microbiome, Gebunden

Klappentext

"After the last drop of rain falls, Meena and her mom head outside to their garden, which is bursting with veggies and flowers. But it isn't the produce that Meena is curious about. It's the microbes in the soil (giving it that earthy smell), in the compost pile, in our bodies everywhere! that have Meena wondering. How do they live? What do they eat? Where did Meena s own microbiome come from? Comparing microbe communities to a bustling city, where everyone has a job to do, Meena's scientist mom answers her questions while they garden, gather vegetables for a neighbor, have a snack at the picnic table, and end the day with a sudsy bath."--Provided by publisher.
