Extremely interesting, full of grossness and scatalogical factoids, definitely worth recommending to the 3rd-6th grader who enjoys a bit of yuck. ( ) This book tells the reader about the different kind of parasites that are on the planet, how they helped shape the earth, and how we as humans can prevent getting bad parasites. This book is so knowledgeable. This book can honestly be used in the science curriculum to teach about hygiene, parasites, the human immune system, and many more other topics. Teachers can divide this book into sections and teach about a different parasite each day as a closing to the class period. I would have loved to learn about lice in school because it was not taught to me. All I knew was the nurse would check students for lice once or twice a year. This book is just filled with so much knowledge that students should be taught. I enjoyed reading this book and learning. I look forward to using this book in a science lesson. In my opinion this book is very overwhelming. As a reader I felt that the writing was a lot because the author used so many different fonts that made the book seem choppy. For example, the book explained the different types of parasites and then explains that people should always take their medicine. Also, the illustrations were too detailed that it was difficult to continue the book. For instance, the page where the author explained about tapeworms and how they travel in humans’ feces is little disgusting. This book is about how parasites are everywhere and that there are good ones and bad ones living in our body.
Wittily illustrated with simple art, and written in a humorous and engaging style, this is a great kids' science book, and would be a wonderful accompaniment to an afternoon spent with a magnifying glass in the park, or online with a search-engine. Pertenece a las series
Mites and lice, fleas, ticks, and tapeworms -- most living creatures that have a habitat also are a habitat, including you (are you itchy yet?). Unwelcome guests -- parasites -- are everywhere, from the barnacles hitching a ride on a humpback whale's head to the tiny flies that control a bee's brain and make it literally dig its own grave. Now an expert team returns for an in-depth look at how these insidious critters do it, whether it's leaping aboard moving targets or morphing their body shapes, and what their unwitting hosts have learned to do to fight back and reclaim their space.
