Fuzz by Mary Roach

There are chapters that will have you giggling like a little kid, chapters that will keep you off hiking trails and mountain roads and there are chapters that will make you think twice about that exotic vacation that involves monkeys, elephants or vomiting seagulls. One thing is certain - you will be wildly entertained and learn much. Science has never been this much fun! Mary Roach brings together rogue animals, naive people and a plethora of experts to help explain (and in many cases exonerate) nature from the mishaps we blame on them. Keep your eyes up watching for killer pines, down at the trail to see what might be thinking of you as a snack and in the skies for crazy birds. Mary Roach's books are always an interesting and delightful foray into stuff we don't even know to be concerned with.  5 just for fun facts stars
