About
Are zombies real? As far as we know, dead people do not come back to life and start walking around, looking for trouble. But there are things that can take over the bodies and brains of innocent creatures, turning them into senseless slaves. Meet nature's zombie makers-including a fly-enslaving fungus, a suicide worm, and a cockroach-taming wasp-and their victims.

"An apropos tie-in with pop culture...[ Zombie Makers ] slays reader apathy from the first glimpse of the cover art."

"Scientific in its approach, this slender book gives children a look at scientific research in real time, and also shows how little we truly know in a less-than-lovely field."
School Library Journal
"Disgustingly good."
