A Worm’s Eye View…the History of the World

Worm your Way through Recycling & History
Take a journey through time and follow the recycling history of the world as told by Wilbur Worm.

Worms are expert recyclers. After all, they've been doing it since the days of the dinosaurs. Even back then, they spent many hours eating their way through giant, steamy dung heaps; turning them into food for plants - organic recycling.

Sounds simple doesn't it? But the history of the worm has not always been easy.

Check out how worms have survived through the Ages to claim their rightful place among us, as Nature's recyclers...

Exceptional books are needed to make a difference. Combining humour and science, this book is the key to educating generations about the beauty and fragility of this planet.
At last a book that captures the science, explores the problems, pulls no punches and leaves no turd unturned.
This first book in this series sold 5,000 copies in the Australian market in just 9 months. Worms have been around since the days of the dinosaurs…eating their way through piles of giant, steamy dung heaps and turning it into worm poo – Nature’s fertiliser.
Sounds easy…but worms and the planet came under attack when humans built mega cities, developed industries and fell in love with chemical fertilisers and poison sprays.
And yet, worms have survived…
This book charts their progress from prehistory, through Cleopatra’s love, Aristotle’s philosophy, Darwin’s research, to today when, believe it or not, worms are dining in 5 star restaurants and holidaying in 5 star resorts.
