Researchers of the Invisible

Content : A humorous book about ecology!

You do not come across little girl researchers in children's books very often... Well, in this book you will be following not one, but two heroines on a zany, offbeat adventure.
Susanne and Suzanne are fascinated by the earth and all that it contains. They are about to embark on a strange journey in the company of a strange troupe of insects with astonishing powers. Tired of being invisible, they decide to take the centre of the stage for once, in a fabulous cabaret show to which our two underground explorers are invited.

This incredible cabaret is an opportunity to discover a multitude of little creatures with extraordinary abilities: from bdelloid rotifers, a species made up exclusively of females, to mealybugs that reproduce without males, to false scorpions in which males and females are exactly the same, to enchyreid worms that switch from one sex to the other, biology has never been so queer!

"Researchers of the Invisible" takes you on an extraordinary journey to the heart of the earth, where the deepest secrets are revealed in a whole new light. Prepare to be amazed and surprised on every page!

Please note: it is all scientifically true. And that is the most surprising part!

The book has a bestiary at the end, summarizing all the information on each insect seen in the book.
