What is Darwin's Super-Pooping Worm Spectacular about?

Charles Darwin is famous for studying evolution, but he was also fascinated by earthworms. While other scientists laughed, Darwin carried out wonderfully strange experiments to discover what made worms special. He played music, set up scent tests and carefully observed their behaviour. Eventually, he uncovered their extraordinary superpower: poo. Worm castings enrich the soil, helping plants grow and supporting life throughout the food chain. This lively, fact-filled picture book introduces Darwin, scientific investigation and the surprising importance of worms.
