Cells At Work! 5




The award-winning manga that takes you inside the human body. Who knew white blood cells and platelets could be so cute?

Ages 13+

Life’s not easy for a workaday cell, and amid all the hustle and bustle it takes to keep the human body going, it can be hard to know who’s an enemy and who’s a friend. You might think all germs are bad, but it turns out some bacteria aren’t just friendly, they’re downright essential (not to mention cuddly!) In fact, when an old nemesis returns, it might just be those friendly, cuddly bacteria that help save the day. The saga of life inside you continues!

Praise for Cells At Work! 5

"There are a lot of anthropormorphized stories these days, but it's rare to see one focused on human cells, and seeing the idea realized so clearly was fantastic. It was great fun entering a world based on real research materials with defined characters based on each cell's different function." -Sirius New Age Award jury
