A new and exciting addition to the Science Explorers series, offering a fresh pick-your-path STEM adventure for emerging readers! Get ready to join an expedition to remote tropical forests in search of a mysterious mushroom called Amparoina spinosissima. This rare, spiny wonder is not easy to find, but you can help! Choose a location and all the tools and equipment you'll need for your search. Be careful-not every path leads where you expect, but you'll see and learn amazing things whichever you pick. Emerging readers will be enticed by the colorful comic-paneled images and action-packed text as they choose the path their expedition will follow and visit new habitats across the globe.   A GROWING SERIES: The first book in the series, Search for a Giant Squid, was named a Best Book of the Year by the New York Public Library, a Good Housekeeping Kids' Book Award winner, and more. In its starred review, Booklist hailed it as "immensely engaging" and said, "This reader packs an informational punch." SPARKS INTEREST IN STEM: This introduction to the work of a mycologist-a scientist who studies fungi-lets readers dip their toes into the career of this specialized research scientist as well as the other team members it takes to lead a successful expedition. ENTERTAINS WHILE IT EDUCATES:  Each possible path leads to a different outcome, so readers learn new facts about scientific expeditions and ecosystems as they explore rainforests in search of an elusive tiny fungi. COMIC BOOK APPEAL: The bright, graphic-paneled imagery will entice kids drawn to comic books, while also making the abundance of information accessible even for the most reluctant reader. INCLUSIVE APPROACH: Research shows children need to "see it to be it." The images in the book showcase a broader range of inclusivity than many STEM titles allowing all reaxers to envision  themselves undertaking a career science.  Perfect for: * Emerging readers with an interest in STEM, forests, and fungi! * Excellent resource for teachers, librarians, and homeschool educators to explore science, travel, and career topics * Fans of other pick-your-path type books, National Geographic kids' books, and the Magic Tree House and Who Would Win book series * Birthday, holiday, or summer break gift for boys and girls who love adventure books and stories about the mysteries of the natural world
