Let's Learn About Mushrooms!

Real photos of real mushrooms. 19 facts your preschooler can remember.

Your three-year-old squats in the yard, pointing at something small and red that wasn't there before. "What IS that?" And you suddenly realize you don't know yourself.

Let's Learn About Mushrooms! explains it in phrases short enough for a preschooler to repeat. Nineteen simple facts, each accompanied by a full-page close-up photograph of the actual mushroom. No cartoons. No googly eyes. Actual toadstools, puffballs, brackets, and fairy rings.

In the book, your child will learn:

• Mushrooms are neither a plant nor an animal - they're a fungus
• That most of a mushroom hides below, like a secret web
• How raindrops make a puffball puff out a cloud of spores
• That some mushrooms grow in circles called fairy rings
• There are luminescent mushrooms that glow in the dark 

Written for 3-5-year-olds in simple sentences containing a pattern that holds children's attention. Each fact is verified with information from museum, university, and government science databases, so you give the right answer to your child.

One page covers the rule every parent wants said out loud: look at wild mushrooms, but never put one in your mouth.

Designed for bedtime reading, preschool classroom, forest school, autumn mushroom walks, and all other activities when a child wants to stop and examine each mushroom they find.
