I think this would bore younger readers and they wouldnt get as much out of this book.This is the perfect thing to accompany a unit on the body or immune system. It has a lot of content about the immune system once Merrin and Pearl are inside Maxs body. This is a higher level book for slightly older readers. Heather Manley has through exquisite detail and colorful illustration, taken willingly on an educationally excited journey with Pearl and Merrin once again.this time with cousin Sam along for the sleuthing, sonrisaManley continues to educate and amaze her young readers with adventurous lessons that will stay with them throughout their teenage years, and even on into adulthood.Just as in her first book “The Lucky Escape” the “Battle of The Bugs” is a definite must have Parents for your child’s Library!!!!Reviewed By: De Ann “Native” Townes Jr., Author of “Peer Inside My Soul and See Me”. She has brilliantly taken us through another “human body detectives” adventure.As in her first book “The Lucky Escape” Dr. The wording is easy for children to comprehend, even when the bigger scientific names are used. Battle With the Bugs follows Merrin and Pearl into their cousin, Maxs, nasal passage and ear as they discover how the body fights ear infections. But I don’t know, because she did like the farts and such in the first book! Heather Manley does an amazing job of relaying very complicated human body functions and vocabulary in a way that is easy to understand in the book Battle With the Bugs.

After the narrative, we have a section with more information on the immune system, interesting facts, part on eating colorful foods to help your immune system, the ever-popular jokes, and a glossary.A couple of the jokes:Why did the student eat his homework?The teacher told him it was a piece of cake!Why did the boy blush when he opened the fridge?He saw the salad dressing!Why did the germ cross the microscope?To get to the other slide!I think this might have been my daughter’s favorite, simply because of the gross factor.

The story is interesting and exciting, and no less informative. Not surprisingly, she said the jokes were her favorite part.Following the same format as the first book, Battle of the Bugs is a great book.
