Every species featured in these pages is a real poisonous mushroom, brought to life through vivid illustrations and engaging verse.This beautifully illustrated book goes beyond the basics, exploring how mushrooms grow, reproduce, and take shape in nature—from tiny spores to sprawling mycelium to the fruiting bodies we find in forests and fields.Through rhymes and clear explanations, readers learn to recognize essential mushroom features—caps, gills, pores, rings, bulbs (volvas), veils, warts, scales, spore prints, and gill types like free, adnate, and decurrent. Each detail helps distinguish the edible from the toxic—and shows how some features can fool us!The story encourages safe and curious observation: note each feature, dig gently to look for bulbs, observe nearby trees and seasons, and check for bruising or color changes. Along the way, readers also discover fungi’s hidden ecological roles, from tree-nurturing mycorrhizae to the saprotrophs that recycle the forest floor.With rhythm, rhyme, and a spark of scientific wonder, Poisonous Fungus Amongus blends accuracy with imagination—inviting kids and adults alike to explore and respect the natural world, while learning that curiosity and caution must always grow together when it comes to mushrooms.Perfect for young readers, nature lovers, teachers, and families who want to explore the mysterious and magical world of fungi!<h2>Support the show</h2>Review the show where ever your listening<a href="https://thepoisonlab.aweb.page/p/cf635c33-5117-4652-abd6-6bedce51444a" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Get Messages from Toxo (Join the Newsletter!)</a><a href="https://thepoisonlab.com/support" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join as a supporting member</a><ul><li>Ad free episodes</li><li>Bonus content and early access</li><li>Discounts and give aways on GOTA PICCEM Mushroom card game</li></ul> <a href="WWW.GOTTAPICCEM.COM" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The GOTTA PICCEM Poisonous Mushroom Game!</a><a href="https://a.co/d/46LP0n9" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Poisonus Fungus Amongus Children's Book!</a><ul><li><a href="https://youtu.be/oLkhJ4L1_4o" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Full book reading (6 minutes!)</a></li></ul> <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/ThePoisonLab" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Tox trinkets (Rep the show at home!)</a><h2>Reach the show</h2><ul><li>Email: Toxtalk1@gmail.com</li></ul> More Show Resources<ul><li><a href="https://the-poison-lab.yolasite.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Ryan's Medical Games and Resources</a></li><li><a href="https://www.thepoisonlab.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Show Website</a></li></ul>
