Summary:
"When we think of life in a garden, we mostly think of...flowers,...herbs, and...vegetables. But there's much more life than we can see there. A garden is a habitat for some tiny organisms, some so tiny that we can't see them without the help of a microscope. While many are beneficial, protecting our plants from harm, others cause harm, sometimes doing damage beyond repair. This...book offers...photographs, including high-magnification images, that show readers what these micromonsters look like, while text and fact boxes explain...life-science concepts"--Amazon.com.
