FUN TO READ!

This book describes 18 bioluminescent organisms, and has a glow-in-the-dark picture on every page that shows the reader what that animal/bacteria/fungus looks like in the dark. It provides just enough information to be educational AND interesting. This book can be fun for all ages, and is great for anyone interested in the begining fundamentals of bioluminescence.
