Series Review: Tiny Invaders"Covering common creeping, crawling, swimming, microscopic and parasitic bugs, this series provides interesting, detailed information about the overlapping worlds of humans and these small creatures. Although somewhat startling to open a book to see the large, magnified face of a cockroach or tapeworm, the high quality, color photographs are fascinating...These books will definitely appeal to the "ewww"-seeking browser after just a quick glance at the covers. Young researchers may be momentarily distracted by the images, but the factual information is solid enough for some good beginning research. These books would fit nicely into a collection or science classroom needing refreshing, new resources."
