This book explores the mysterious world of fungi, blending scientific observation with cultural folklore. Written in the early twentieth century, the text uses a formal and descriptive style that reflects the botanical knowledge of that era. You will encounter specialized vocabulary related to biology and nature, alongside slightly complex sentence structures. It is a rewarding read for those interested in natural history, as it balances technical classification with the historical myths and superstitions that have long surrounded these peculiar organisms.

Questions about this book
What level of Dutch do I need for this book?
The estimate is C1, based on how common the words are and how long the sentences run. It is an approximation, not a test result. With a translation under every sentence you can start one level earlier than you would with a paper copy.
Is this book really free?
Yes. The text is in the public domain and comes from Project Gutenberg, so it costs nothing. In Lingo7 you open the book and read the first page for free; a subscription unlocks the whole library, the audio and the word practice.
How does reading with a translation work?
Lingo7 shows the original sentence and, right under it, the same sentence in your language. Tap a word to see what it means, hear it, and save it for practice. The translation is made while you read, so it works for any book and for 49 languages.
How long does it take to read?
About 5 h 41 min at a native pace, spread over 70 chapters. In a foreign language plan for more: half an hour a day finishes a book of this size in a few weeks.
