Cells
How many cells are in the human body? Questions like this are answered in this engaging look at cells. Readers learn that they are the building blocks of the human body. They'll go on an adventure with Dr. Seymour Skinless, who travels under the skin to investigate how our bodies work. Dr. Seymour Skinless explains how cells function, the structure of cells, and many useful facts on this essential science curriculum topic. Stimulating fact boxes, a thorough glossary, eye-catching illustrations and diagrams, and full-color photographs add to this exciting trip inside the human body.
Protozoa
Many mammals, insects, and other animals are easily recognizable. However, there are other creatures that are less well known, such as protozoa, which are single-celled living things that are neither plants nor animals. These tiny organisms can only be seen by looking through a microscope. They live in various habitats and even inside animals. This age-appropriate and well-researched text simplifies this complex biology topic to make it more easily understandable for young readers. Detailed graphic organizers, informational diagrams, engaging fact boxes, and vibrant, full-color photographs enhance this essential science curriculum topic.
Foul Fungi
Fungus is an important part of the breakdown of decaying material, but what happens when that fungus infects a healthy human body? While some infections may look bacterial or viral, young readers will be surprised to learn that they can actually be from fungus. Fungal infections are common, leading to conditions like athlete's foot and ringworm. Understanding how these fungi are spread can help young readers learn how to remain fungi-free. With photographs of fungi in action and fun illustrations to keep the topic light, this book keeps young readers interested in the science of fungal infections.
Antibiotics
We come in contact with germs everywhere: the store, school, and in our homes. Not all bacteria make us sick, but those that do can be combatted with antibiotics. First discovered in 1928, penicillin is just one of many antibiotics that are used to treat those who are sick with a bacterial infection or have had surgery. Your readers will find out about the development of antibiotics and to how they work in the body. Resistance and the future of antibiotics are covered, juxtaposed with medical treatments used to help people before antibiotics.
Genetics
What factors determine a person's hair color and eye color? Why are some people short and some tall? These questions and others similar to them are answered in this engaging guide to the science of genetics. Through this accessible resource, readers learn about the inherited traits parents can pass down to their children. Clear and concise language is used to simplify this complex science curriculum topic. A helpful glossary, detailed sidebars, interesting fact boxes, and striking, full-color photographs enhance the main text and provide even more details about the fascinating world of genetics.
Beastly Bacteria
Bacteria are unicellular organisms found in nearly every corner of the globe. Some can be found in the most extreme places where no human could ever survive while others are vital for keeping the human body working. Unfortunately, even good bacteria can make a person sick. Through these colorful illustrations and fun narrative, young readers will learn about bacteria and how different kinds affect different creatures. The inviting, conversational tone keeps readers interested in the fascinating and complex inner workings of bacterial infections.
The Immune System
Germs are everywhere you go! Some can make you very sick or even kill you. Your immune system is always working to stop them. But how does it do that? Learn about all the ways the immune system fights germs to keep you healthy. The Immune System is part of the Super Science Facts series that engages readers in grades 5 to 12 with fun science facts and colorful images on every page to support comprehension. The series covers Physical Science, Life Science and Social Sciences in individual sets. The minimal-text format (1,700 to 2,000 words per book) introduces content vocabulary defined in context and repeated in a glossary.
Brutal Body
The human body is unique, to say the least. With the help of this stimulating book, readers will learn about the fascinating ways their bodies operate, from the way their brain processes things, to the reason there is snot in their nose. Fun and relevant experiments will engage even those readers who aren't typically scientifically inclined. Creative language and colorful images will appeal to readers of many levels, while exciting activities will reinforce their understanding of important scientific concepts.
Germs Up Close
Have you ever seen a germ up close? Really, really close? Award-winning science writer Sara Levine introduces readers to a variety of viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and fungi that can make people sick—including SARS-CoV-2, E. coli, and ringworm. Micrographs and illustrations show extremely close-up views of the germs that are at once incredible and a little gross. The book concludes with tips for staying healthy as well as information about the immune system, vaccines, and medicines. It gives readers accessible, up-to-date scientific information presented in a way that emphasizes curiosity rather than fear.
