A sneeze. A scratchy throat. A field trip no one wants to miss... and an incredible team of tiny helpers hard at work behind the scenes.
When Alec wakes up excited for his class trip to the science museum, he has no idea that something unexpected has tagged along. Deep inside his body, Scout notices the very first clue that something doesn't belong.
Soon Scout calls in an unforgettable team of tiny heroes-Mop, Buzz, Sticky, and Zap-each with an important job to do. Together, they work to protect Alec while he enjoys one of the best days of his life.
Filled with humor, adventure, and lovable characters, Cleanin' Up Dem Germs introduces children to the amazing work of the immune system through an imaginative story they'll want to read again and again.
Perfect for curious readers ages 6-10, this engaging chapter book includes a kid-friendly explanation of the real science behind the story, helping children understand how their bodies work in a fun, reassuring way. The book concludes with The Science Behind Cleanin' Up Dem Germs, connecting each character to its real role in the immune system.
Join Scout and the Clean Team for an adventure that proves some of the greatest heroes are the ones we never see.
