Sobre IBD

Beneath your feet is a world that’s alive, mysterious, and absolutely wild-and this book digs straight into it. From wriggling worms and glowing fungi to microbes that work like tiny underground engineers, kids will uncover the hidden life that powers our planet from the ground up. With fun facts, mind-blowing science, and plenty of gross-but-awesome details, this book invites curious readers to see soil not as 'just dirt,' but as one of the most important ecosystems on Earth.Packed with real science, surprising stories, and hands-on activities, young readers will meet creatures that farm fungi, bugs that bounce, molds that think (sort of), and roots that send messages through underground networks. They’ll explore how soil affects everything from the food we eat to the air we breathe-and what happens when we stop taking care of it.Whether you’re a backyard explorer, a composting beginner, or a future soil scientist, this is your guide to the life hidden beneath the surface. Every chapter brings the underground world to life with a tone that’s friendly, factual, and unforgettable. Once you know what’s happening below ground, you’ll never look at a patch of earth the same way again.

  • Young Beethoven
    James Smith
    He wasn’t always the world-famous composer whose symphonies shook concert halls. Once, he was simply a boy in Bonn, Germany, who struggled with school, helped care for his brothers, and spent long hours at the keyboard under the watchful eye of his father.
