Being tiny is tough! You can't reach the highest shelf where the cookie jar sits, and the big kids always steal your lunchtime snacks. Don't get me started on going to theme parks, you can never get on the rides and you're always told to have an adult present for everything you do. But what if I told you that being small didn't suck at all? But was in fact really, really cool.
Focus your eyes on the world of micro animals and learn what it's like to be so small. Discover how these tiny creatures stay safe, or hunt for their lunch. Zoom in on their superpowers, like having the ability to shoot microscopic darts, spring-loaded jumps which take them to incredible heights or the amazing ways in which tiny hunters defend themselves from much bigger creatures. Maybe it's not so tough to be tiny after all!
Kim Ryall Woolcock has always loved books and biology. She has an honours degree in literature from UBC and a Master's in Biology from Duke University. When she realised she loved writing about science more than doing lab work, she became Exhibits Director at a Natural History Museum. A full-time science writer and editor, Kim lives on Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, with her family.
