Booktalk:<\/strong> 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! Back matter includes a glossary, additional mushroom facts, and a science activity.<\/em><\/p>\n
