Meet Dr. Eleanor Spicer Rice, creator of "The Deadliest" book series: National Book Festival 25th Anniversary Series
Description
This conversation was BUGGING me out (in the best way)! I got to interview Dr. Eleanor Spicer Rice, an entomologist and creator of "The Deadliest" book series, where animals compete game-show style to see who's the most lethal! Dr. Rice broke down the fascinating world of pheromones, the secret chemical messages bugs use to communicate and it blew my mind! We even played a game from her book series, and you'll never guess what the deadliest sea creature is... hint: it's NOT a shark, but something people actually eat! (Spoiler: puffer fish!) Her enthusiasm for the insect world and deadly creatures was contagious, and now I understand why the smallest and strangest animals are actually the coolest! Join me, Ishara, as I explore the wonders of science and nature with experts who help us see the world in totally new ways.
You can watch the entire interview on my YouTube channel.
