About This Book
What a fun way to learn how our incredible bodies protect us from illness!
This book introduces children to our body's "weapons," known as "natural defenses." Even science is presented poetically here, as the respective worlds of mucus, cilia, earwax, skin, stomach acid, the immune system and the brain — our body's biggest protectors — are explored in an age-appropriate, creatively written fashion.
Author Gelman's Body Battles is a great beginning for young scientists ready to expand their understanding of the wonders of the amazing human body.
