--Cressida Cowell, Waterstones Children's Laureate A journey into
the wonderful world of your microbiome. Within our bodies hides an
entire world of organisms called microbes. They digest our food and
protect our immune systems, and without them, we would die. Through
Katie Brosnan's personable illustrations, we follow the digestive
process from the moment the food enters our mouths to the moment
the waste leaves our bodies. Along the way we are introduced to a
variety of microbes - good and bad - and gain an insight into the
vast ecosystem that exists inside us. Scientists are only now
beginning to comprehend the significance of our microbiome. This is
a gorgeously presented introduction to a most fascinating
scientific frontier.
