What happens beneath the forest floor before a mushroom appears?
How the Mushrooms Grow takes young readers on a woodland walk to discover the mushrooms growing all around them—and the hidden fungal networks beneath their feet.
Through playful verse and illustrations, children are introduced to different kinds of mushrooms, how fungi grow, and the important roles they play in forest ecosystems.
It's an approachable introduction to fungi for curious kids, families, classrooms, and anyone who likes looking a little more closely at the natural world.
Pair it with one of our mushroom grow kits for a hands-on growing experience: read about how mushrooms grow, then watch real mushrooms emerge, develop, and become something you can harvest and eat.
