FROM SARAH:

I read this aloud. The illustrations are lovely, and the book itself is luxurious. Gorgeous endpapers, a thick jacket, beautifully illustrated. Perfect for kids who are learning about or are interested in what can be viewed through a microscope!

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

Microbes are everywhere: in the soil and oceans, in snow, and inside our bodies. But in Antony van Leeuwenhoek’s time, people believed that what they saw with their own eyes was all that existed in the world. How did a simple tradesman—who didn’t go to college or speak English or Latin like all the other scientists—change everyone’s minds?
