There’s an entire universe of fungi, much of which is yet to be discovered. To teach you about the basics, Mushroom Magic features 50 types.

Flip through beautifully illustrated mushrooms and learn about their habitat, uses, and history to become a budding expert in mycology.

This is definitely not a guide to read cover to cover even though it's not a long book.

Geeft een goede beschrijving van verschillende soorten paddestoelen. Waar je ze aan kan herkennen, waar ze voorkomen en of je ze kunt eten.
