Did you know they can be smaller than a seed or bigger than a grown-up's hand? Cartoonist Kevin McCloskey is back with his trademark mixture of real-life science, lovely art, and infectious hilarity for the slimiest book in his acclaimed Giggle and Learn series, praised by the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e as \"a winning combination of facts and gross-out fun.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKevin McCloskey is the author of the critically acclaimed TOON Books \u003cb\u003eGiggle and Learn series\u003c\/b\u003e and an illustration professor at Pennsylvania's Kutztown University.
