This science book examines decay and the organisms involved at each stage of decomposition. It looks closely at decomposers and their role in making Earth livable, while explaining how decomposition relates to climate change. Color illustrations portray the complex work of these organisms, and the book includes experiments and activities connected to its subject. The result is an exploration of rot that links tiny living things, natural processes, and the wider environment.
