Brains = cauliflower! Great image. Little ambulatory cauliflowers!

The book can be ordered through the publisher’s website link above. I hope you enjoy it!

New Jay Hosler? Awesome. Must get. Of course, I need copies of The Sandwalk Adventures and Clan Apis to call my own, but still.

Oh, thank goodness. I had wondered what he had been up to since Sandwalk Adventures came out. Looks like time to fire up the old wish list.

Johanna,

This is an incredible book. I loved the blend of comics and text. I’m very impressed with Dr. Hosler’s gift as a teacher. The range of science covered in the book is amazing and he’s able to clearly explain all the concepts presented. The Darwin’s feed frenzy was a little tough to take. Thankfully, brains and cauliflower look similar. I’ll definitely purchase his next book. I do wish there were more Cow-boy comics.
