The story is based on a number of scientific facts but there are many areas of artistic license taken to make the story work for children. The main purpose of the story is to bring about an awareness of the enormous role the world we cannot see plays in our existence and the issue of carbon emissions and perhaps to create an empathy for rather than aversion to the microbe world we cohabit.
