I have always wondered what happens to the 1% of the germs that don't get "cleaned" by hygiene products. And this book somehow answer those question. However, the ending wasn't what I expected it would be. I didn't know if it's scientifically correct, but for me the answer of that 1% germs was not satisfying. I read this book to my 5 years old son and he was also questioning the ending. The ending led us to some research regarding that matter. It was actually fun that this book brought critical mind on us.
Though the book presented real name illustrator, I found the style of the illustrations here so much like an AI-generated illustrations. I hope I am wrong. To be honest, we (my son and I) didn't like the illustrations. They were not in our like-styles illustrations. Completely personal tho. I believe many might be fan of that kind of style.
What my son loved the most from this book was to spot Onna on each page. Who's Onna? You need to pick up this book to know.
Thank you to Grant Kurzman and NetGalley for the ARC.
p.s When I read the author's last name, my son said his name fit the book. I needed a minute to understand what he meant by that. He rolled his eyes and said Kurzman sounds like "kuman". Indonesian word for germ. And I laughed for like a minute. What a smart boy!
