Full set of Small Friends Books by Ailsa Wild, Briony Barr, Gregory Crocetti and Aviva Reed

The Small Friends Books series tells stories about symbiotic partnerships between microorganisms and larger life forms. Combining cutting-edge science with engaging narrative and beautiful illustrations, each book contains a story and a science section, with accompanying teacher notes. Featuring microbes, molecules and mucus…this series nurtures an appreciation for our small friends – from bacteria and viruses, to archaea, fungi, protozoa and algae. Each story is developed collaboratively by a core creative team, with support and feedback from scientists, teachers and students, with support from the Australian Society for Microbiology. All four titles are co-published in Australia by Scale Free Network and CSIRO Publishing.

Includes Zobi and the Zoox: A Story of Coral Bleaching, The Squid, the Vibrio & the Moon, Nema and the Xenos: A Story of Soil Cycles, and The Forest in the Tree: How Fungi Shape the Earth.
