War of Stars Inside the Body - Genie Bini Picture Book 8

Description

Our body is a small universe
The 8th story in Genie Bini’s picture book series, “The War of the Stars in the Body,” begins with the phrase ‘BODY STAR WARS.’ Just as the term ‘Star Wars’ is familiar, but the term ‘Body Star Wars’ is somewhat unfamiliar, there are many cases in which we do not know much about the invisible war that takes place within our bodies. The Genie Bini picture book series stimulates curiosity with its world view that ‘our bodies are small universes’ and the message that ‘there are stars in our bodies that are like the universe.’ The body is depicted as a vast universe, and the cells inside the body are depicted as twinkling stars, drawing you deeper into the story.

Strengthening our immune system in an easy and fun way!
When an army of bad alien bacteria infiltrates our otherwise healthy body, we become sick. At this time, the good white blood cells in our body defeat the bad bacteria and restore our health. In “The Battle of the Stars in the Body,” the immune system, in which various types of white blood cells protect our bodies, is expressed in detail. The process of creating macrophages, neutrophils, dendritic cells, T cells, and B cells is explained in detail through a world of imagination. Macrophage neutrophils are described as soldiers that directly fight against alien bacteria, dendritic cells are described as intelligence units that decompose alien bacteria, study them, and collect information, and T cells and B cells are described as troops created based on research results to be suitable for alien bacteria. By doing this, we learn about the roles and abilities of white blood cells in a fun way.

Children not only learn about white blood cells, but also develop their scientific imagination as they discover new facts. How do alien bacteria enter the body? Where are weapons made to fight alien germs? What efforts are needed to better fight alien germs? If you exercise your imagination with various curiosity, you will naturally understand the meaning of the immune system.

Children develop their scientific imagination by observing things, asking questions, and discovering new facts. In the process, you will develop the strength to cope with the situations and problems you face. By understanding the process by which our body fights and overcomes external viruses, you will be able to gain confidence that you can believe in your own strength and grow well. If you learn about the effectiveness and necessity of vaccines that appear at the end of the book, you may be more willing to get vaccinated. It also teaches us the important fact that if we live a regular life of eating well, bathing well, sleeping well, and washing well every day, the white blood cells in our body will grow strong and protect us.

Author Lee So-eul, who conveys science found in our daily lives in a fun and detailed way through artistic fairy tales, has published the 8th Genie Bini picture book, “The War of the Stars in the Body,” with a joyful imagination that stimulates curiosity about the body. ‘The War of the Stars in the Body’ helps children understand in more detail what happens inside their bodies and deeply understands that they must treat themselves positively and take care of themselves.
