In this eye-catching book, readers can explore the hidden inner
workings of the human body, look inside different organs and body
systems and learn about how to look after their own physical and
mental health at the same time. Readers use the see-through magic
lens to reveal how our bodies function and the different body parts
hard at work inside us. Find out how your senses work with your
brain to show us the world around us, how doctors and nurses spot
diseases and how we turn food into energy... and poo. So pick up
the magic lens and take a tour of the marvellous human body!
Thirteen-year-old, second-string quarterback Ian McGowan has
serious issues with his life. Everything lately seems like a
catastrophe. In fact, things are so bad that he's certain the world
is ending.
Ian is sure he is all alone in tackling heavy issues: failing
algebra tests, trying to understand girls, relating to his parents,
comprehending current world events, and unwittingly involving
himself in a life-threatening situation. The problem is that nobody
else seems to notice anything is wrong! Ian has no idea what to do
about any of it-and he's sure that no one will understand
anyway-except maybe his best friend who isn't even talking to him
at the moment.
Ian soon realizes that people and situations aren't always what
they appear to be. A new friend may turn out to be someone you've
known all along-without ever really knowing them at all.
An interactive activity book for 9-12-year-olds on overcoming
anxiety You can conquer your worries. The power is within you! We

mind by listening to what your body is telling you. Ever tried the

stress AND introduces us to our second brain! Hello! It's time to
make CALM your superpower. ARE YOU READY TO BE KIND TO YOUR MIND?
