| book description |

From the tiny organisms thriving all around us to the invisible energy waves sending signals to our gadgets, the world is brimming with activity that we canâ€™t see. Some really small things can only be seen with the most powerful microscopes, while other things are just plain invisible. Did you know that hawks use ultraviolet light â€“ invisible to humans â€“ to see trails of wee left by mice so that they can find their next meal? Or that invisible magnetic fields are so strong they can suspend a frog in mid-air? Find out about the invisible worlds all around us, from tiny germs and bacteria to gases and gravity. Hear directly from a flea, a grain of rice, an amoeba, a gas-filled balloon and loads of other first-person narrators as they guide you through an incredible world that you canâ€™t even see. Each comic page is packed with fascinating facts and big laughs, and thereâ€™s a handy glossary at the back to help with any tricky science terms. Written in Mike Barfieldâ€™s hilarious, educational style and accompanied by Jess Bradleyâ€™s quirky and colourful comic-strip illustrations, Meet the Invisibles invites curious readers to marvel at the huge powers behind the tiniest phenomena. So pick up your magnifying glass and dive into a tiny world of microbes, atoms, radiation, microbiology and other fascinating science facts for children.
