Whether you love it or are disgusted by it, slime is an essential part of life on Earth. From the snot in our noses to snail trails to a jellyfish's sublimely slimy body, nature simply cannot live without this glorious goo.

Through this unique approach to natural history for kids, readers will discover the many ways that animals and other organisms use slime to survive and thrive in the natural world. They'll marvel at the beauty of brainless slime molds that can navigate their way through a maze; find out how a slug rides the waves of its own trail of slime; shiver at the thought of being a shark, suffocated by a hagfish's defensive cloud of slime; and be revolted by the stinky green slime that comes out of an opossum's rear end when it plays dead.
