Ebony's Microbiome Story - Hardcover

What if the secret to getting your child to eat their vegetables is hiding right inside their tummy?

Meet Ebony, a bright six-year-old girl who would rather eat chocolate cake than carrots. But when she falls asleep, she is visited by two tiny, talking friends who reveal a hidden world inside her body: the microbiome!

On one shoulder is Staph, the leader of the bad bacteria, who thrives on junk food and sugar. On the other is Lacto, the champion of the good bacteria, who needs fruits, veggies, and whole grains to stay strong and protect Ebony's body.

In Ebony's Microbiome Story, young readers are taken on a delicious and educational journey to understand the science of nutrition. Through a delightful mix of everyday school life and magical dream sequences, children will discover:

  • Empowerment Over Picky Eating: By watching Ebony take control of her health to help the "good guys" win, children feel inspired to make better choices at the lunch table.
