It's not possible for people to walk, or even drive, to many places. Buses, trains, and airplanes get us where we need to go. Unfortunately, wherever large groups of people gather, there are sure to be a lot of germs—and other unpleasant things, too. The more we learn about these things, the more we can keep healthy and adopt behaviors to keep others healthy as well. The gross things hidden from view, or impossible to see with the human eye, on several modes of transportation are discovered through accessible text and engaging, fun facts.

Fungi's role in making cheese is quite unsavory to think about, but the end result sure tastes good. Yeast, one fungus discussed, is the fungus that makes our bread light and airy. Readers will also learn about the gross things in food that are dangerous and how to keep safe from E. coli and other bacteria. They'll be surprised and grossed out, but ultimately enthralled as they learn about the foods they eat every day.

Despite how cute and cuddly pets are, they are pretty gross too. Anyone who has seen drool trailing from a dog's mouth or a cat cough up a fur ball will agree. Readers learn about all sorts of animal behaviors and what they tell us about an animal's body. Readers will also discover several ways they can help keep their pets healthy. Animal biology is a key element of this book, making it a worthy addition to any science library.

In April of 2019, Tracy asked her therapist for guidance to recount her story and that of her two precious sons to bring awareness for the need to change societal attitudes and systems that she believes failed them all. These radiant boys were full of life and passionately loved not only hockey, but their Mama as well.
