From the award-winning team behind Tiny and Lots comes a new book exploring another fascinating area of biology: growth.

A beautifully illustrated introduction to the concept of DNA for younger readers. All living things grow – every plant and every animal, including human beings. Some things grow fast and others grow slowly; some things grow by tiny degrees, while others grow to be enormous. Yet there's something about the way we grow that links us all together. Ever since you were the size of a dot, your body has been following a set of instructions: a code, which connects you with every creature on the planet... With words from Nicola Davies and exquisite artwork by Emily Sutton, this groundbreaking book is certain to enchant and inspire children.

Ka-choo! Brrr. Yawnnnn.

Have you ever wondered what makes you sneeze when you're in a dusty room? Or shiver when you get out of the bathtub? Or yawn when you're tired? All of these actions are reflexes. Your body makes them happen even though you don't tell it to.

Budding young scientists will be amazed as Melvin Berger and Paul Meisel reveal the mysteries behind the reflexes that happen in our bodies every day and offer fun-filled experiments to try on family and friends. Let's Read and Find Out Science, Stage 2.

Would you like to know how germs were discovered? Who found the first antibiotic? Who first described blood circulation? How scientists discovered DNA, and insulin, etc...? If you are curious, then read this series. These are some of the stories about the most important medical discoveries ever made, which have saved millions and millions of lives. These extraordinary discoveries are not a simple matter of luck or talent; they are the results of tenacious hard work and never-ending curiosity. Like Louis Pasteur said, "Chance favors only the prepared mind." There are still many medical mysteries awaiting you to solve. You, as a young doctor, can make a difference and can save more lives. This book is about the discovery of vitamins. It is also about young people just like yourselves, who never gave up.

An illustrated book for young students presenting an overview of what is known about the first humans. Topics include Lucy and friends, the rise of Homo sapiens, early life in the Ice, Stone, Bronze and Iron Age, famous fossil hunters, great sites and population growth.

Learn all about germs when Ms. Frizzles class takes another exciting field trip.

In The Giant Germ, a class picnic in the park becomes an exploration of the mini world of microbes. Even though microbes are tiny, they have huge effects on the world. Ms. Frizzle and her class get into trouble when they run into a giant germ.

Light, sound, taste, and smell shape our lives dramatically, but how does this happen? How can a far-away noise elicit a joyful memory or a cry? How can the smell of cookies take you back to early childhood? These powerful stimuli exist in our environment, yet remain neutral until our brain decodes the necessary information into meaningful senses. In other words, light is transformed into vision, and sound into hearing, by the brain and the brain only. ""Seeing, Hearing, and Smelling the World"" reveals the phenomena underlying our senses, with a brief discussion of what can go wrong (for example, hearing colors or seeing sounds). This book will reacquaint readers with their senses and challenge their fundamental understanding of the amazing human mind.
