Cartoon scavengers over decomposing things

Rotten!: Vultures, Beetles, Slime, and Nature's Other Decomposers

by Anita Sanchez Author and Gilbert Ford Illustrator

This book explores the life and biology of scavengers — for children ages 8 to 12. They’ll learn about all things smelly, rotten, and decomposing and how this is a natural part of the cycle of life. Decomposers are essential parts of the food chain, allowing for it to start anew. Kids will learn how decomposition happens everywhere — from the forest floor, in the ocean, even inside us in our mouths and stomachs! Exploring creatures such as vultures, sharks, maggots, mushrooms and more, they’ll learn about one of the fascinating and rotten part of life.
