It's time to show SLIME some LOVE! This book is an icky, sticky celebration of the incredible work slime does all day long. Slime is a shield, a weapon, a climate protector, a nursery and lots of fun, too.
Icky World takes a look at the science of the messiest parts of nature and reminds us all to protect these icky but important bits of our precious planet. Each book has been reviewed and endorsed by an expert in the relevant branch of science and supports curriculum learning in the areas of science and ecology for ages 6 and up.
In praise of Icky World: We Need SLIME!
"Can a book on slime be delightful? This one is: delightfully gross, icky and disgusting but also informative, hands-on and a joy to read. This is the perfect gift for kids who want to know more, look deeper - and keep the whole family entertained. I loved it."
Susanne Wedlich, author of Slime: A Natural History
