Critics Review
“This may be the cutest science book ever! Just like their compatriots in the [manga], the different cells of the body appear as workers just doing their jobs. But this book is a bit different—it’s in color, and the anthropomorphized cells look like little kids, albeit industrious little kids… It’s like a cuter version of the Magic School Bus. A charming book that looks at the body from the inside and turns science into an adventure.” –School Library Journal
