I read this book in science class and there is no theme other than to help you fill out a worksheet and teach you about what your body does when bacteria or a virus enters.

Wow! You really can learn about cells and neutrophils and phagocytes and lymphocytes in this book! If you want to teach your kids/students about cells, this is the book to go to.



note: this appreciation is sarcasm. it is a good book to learn about cells but it’s not like it’s my fav book of all time.

My dad bought me this book when I was small. Because of it, I still remember the differences between lymphocytes, neutrophils, and macrophages!
