Sara Latta crea narrazioni avvincenti per giovani lettori, addentrandosi nelle complessità della materia oscura, nelle vite nascoste dei microbi, nel DNA, nelle ossa e nei misteri della scienza forense. Il suo background accademico, incluso un master in immunologia, informa la sua capacità di illuminare concetti scientifici complessi con chiarezza e prosa coinvolgente.
