Summary of Gene Machines (Enjoy Your Cells, 4)

It?s over ten years since Fran and Mic invented a new way of getting science across to children. Think what extraordinary advances have been made in biology in that time?and how often those discoveries made headlines. Stem cells, cloning, embryo transfer, emerging infections, vaccine development?here in these books are the basic facts behind the public debates. With these books, children will learn to enjoy their cells and current affairs at the same time. And they?re getting information that has been written and reviewed by working scientists, so it?s completely correct and up-to-date. Readers aged 7 and up will appreciate the stories? lively language and with help, even younger children will enjoy and learn from the jokes and illustrations?no expert required!

This series is a must for all elementary school students and those who care about educating them to be well-informed in a world of increasingly complex health-related and environmental issues.
