Meg Madden

Middlebury native Meg Madden has turned a Covid-era pastime into a cottage industry by photographing and sharing information about her fungal finds on her popular @megmaddendesign Instagram account, where she has over 43,000 followers. On one happy day in 2021, she got a phone call from one of the world's largest publishing houses offering her a book deal, a thing that most authors know just. does. not. happen. And less than two years later, they have published not just a book, but two companion sidelines: a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle and a wooden magnet set. Meg had total design control over the project, so while the book and gifts don't feature her spectacular (iPhone!) photography, the sweet illustrations are accurate depictions of real fungi and their habitat. This Is a Book for People Who Love Mushrooms is a carefully researched, primer on a subject that naturalists are discovering more about each year. Accessible to enthusiasts of all levels, it is the perfect gift for the mushroom lover (or not-yet mushroom lover) in your life.
