Have you ever baked bread? Then you have seen fungi in action! It is estimated that there are more than two million species of fungi on Earth. They are one of the most widely distributed organisms on the planet, and most of them are invisible to the naked eye. Several of the smallest fungi make our lives better in many ways. At home, they are essential for baking. In forests, they decompose organic matter, returning nutrients to the soil. Learn fascinating facts like these—and many more—in the pages of Fungi.
ABOUT THIS SERIES:
Nature includes everything around us that wasn’t created by humans—animals, plants, towering mushrooms, and more. There’s also an essential part of nature that is invisible to the naked eye—an enormous number of microscopic creatures that play crucial roles in sustaining life on Earth and impact our daily lives in many ways. These include bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi. With engaging, easy-to-understand text and striking photography and diagrams, the books in the Invisible Nature series put these organisms “under the microscope” and take readers on a journey of discovery to understand the roles they play in our everyday lives.
