If I Were a Fungus
If Leo were a fungus, he wouldn’t be an animal—or a plant. He would live in the mountains but also in the city. He would live in lakes, in the desert, and on cheese!
Fungi are found around the globe, yet we know very little about them. Scientists even have a hard time defining what they are because they’re so contradictory. In If I Were a Fungus, author and illustrator Gaia Stella presents a colorful and offbeat introduction to a most unusual life-form!

Reviews
Children's Literature Comprehensive Database (CLCD)
“While some kids might get creeped out by the idea that ’there’s always a fungus among us,’ most will find the funky fungi to be a pretty fun guy. The backmatter is fantastic. Its annotated sketches of a fungus and Leo are a cheerful, kind-friendly balance of science vocabulary, fun facts, and humor. Reviewer Rating: 5”—Children’s Literature
Publishers Weekly
“The phenomenal capabilities of fungi star in this lightly informative and humorous profile. . . In bold-hued digital and marker art, geometric shapes lend Stella’s spreads a blocky, elementary vibe that suits the kid-centric text.”—Publishers Weekly

“[U]seful as an introduction to a little-known or understood subject.”—School Library Journal
