The world is full of tiny viruses and bacteria that can be seen only through a microscope. Some bacteria can be helpful, but others cause diseases such as typhoid fever. Viruses can cause deadly diseases such as COVID-19. In this book, readers will get all the facts about bacteria and viruses, including their similarities and differences, how they cause infections, and how people can keep dangerous germs from spreading.
Melissa Mayer is a science writer and former science teacher who’s currently working on an M.S. in Entomology.

She’s the author of 5 nonfiction books for children and young adults.
