Osteoblasts to the Rescue - An Imaginative Journey Through the Skeletal System (Paperback)

Human Body Detectives Merrin and Pearl are at it again. Their magical ability to jump into people's bodies and explore their systems (digestive, skeletal, nervous ( June 2014), circulatory, and immune) combines science with their fun adventures to help kids understand their anatomy and how their bodies work. In Osteoblasts to the Rescue, Merrin and Pearl examine their friend Lily's skeletal system on their journey to reach the broken bone in her arm. Along the way they slide down rib bones, climb up the clavicle, see the fracture, and so much more. In the end they not learn about how broken bones repair themselves, but they get a firsthand lesson on the functions of the skeletal system. Ideal for both the home and the classroom, these beautifully illustrated books offer activity pages as well as a glossary of terms and information about the best foods kids can eat to keep their bodies healthy. A curriculum for teachers is also available for each book. The Human Body Detectives series offers science with a twist-an accessible lesson about the human body presented in a fun, relatable way that kids will love. Each Human Body Detective book can stand-alone as well as be read as part of the series. Osteoblasts to the Rescue is one of five stories featured in the Human Body Detectives series, along with Battle with the Bugs, A Heart Pumping Adventure, The Lucky Escape, and Brainiacs. which will be debuting in June 2014.
