About the Book

New Edition, new updates!

Human Body Detectives Merrin and Pearl are at it again. Their magical ability to jump into people's bodies and explore their systems (digestive, circulatory, skeletal, nervous systems) combines science with their fun adventures to help kids understand how their anatomy, physiology, and how to nourish it well.

In Battle with the Bugs, Merrin and Pearl enter their cousin, Max's, immune system to find out why he was sick. They travel up Max's nose during their journey, ride on a white blood cell into battle against the bacteria that made Max ill. They use their nutrition knowledge to end Max's fever successfully. In the end, they not only learn about the different types of white blood cells and what they do to keep us healthy, but they also get a firsthand lesson on the functions of the immune system.

Battle with the Bugs is one of five stories featured in the Human Body Detectives series, along with, The Lucky Escape, A Heart Pumping Adventure, Osteoblasts to the Rescue, and Brainiacs

The Human Body Detectives series explores science with a twist-an accessible lesson about the human body presented in a fun, relatable way that kids will love. Each Human Body Detective book can stand alone or be read as part of the series.

A curriculum for teachers and homeschooling families is also available for each book on the Human Body Detectives website.

Recommended for ages 6 to 10

She wanted to provide a fun and engaging resource that would teach kids about how their bodies work and what foods best feed them. And the HBDs were born. The Human Body Detectives series won Moms' Choice Award and is also a Parent Tested, Parent Approved winner.

She lives with her husband and her two daughters, with whom she based her stories' characters, Merrin and Pearl. Dr. Heather is currently at work writing another Human Body Detectives adventure, an imaginative journey through the brain and nervous system. Site: http: //www.humanbodydetectives.com/blog/
