Perfect for middle schoolers who love everything gross, from the nasty things inside (and out) of our bodies to icky animals, revolting plants, gruesome bacteria, and more. Written by award-winning author Teresa Robeson, Disgustology: The Science of Gross is packed full of fun facts and silly science, along with truly eye-popping illustrations and photographs that make intestines, boogers, ringworms, faecal coliforms, and brain-eating amoebas even more vivid and visceral.

Readers will be gagging and giggling at the same time. It's truly the most disgusting book ever!
