Description
Fresh from his first victory against dangerous bacteria in Cell Wars, white blood cell Bands faces an even deadlier enemy - the influenza virus. When these crafty invaders begin infiltrating the body's defenses using hypnotic powers to trick guard cells, Bands must lead a crucial reconnaissance mission to uncover their sinister plan. But with his mentor Captain Neutro missing in action and the viruses multiplying at an alarming rate, Bands learns that some enemies can't be fought alone.
Together with his giggly friend Phyllis and a pair of laid-back red blood cells named Haemo and Globin, Bands races against time to save his human. As the virus army grows stronger and begins turning white blood cells against each other, Bands must master new powers of perception and learn to trust his instincts. When he discovers the virus's mind-controlling leader has captured Captain Neutro, Bands faces his most difficult decision yet - one that could cost him his hero and friend.
This action-packed second book of the Cell Wars series delves deeper into the body's immune system, teaching young readers about viruses, antibodies, and how the body fights infection. Through Bands' adventure, children will learn the difference between bacteria and viruses, why antibiotics don't work on viral infections, and how vaccines help protect us. With themes of teamwork, trust, and courage in the face of overwhelming odds, this story combines accurate science with thrilling adventure.
Perfect for children aged 7-11 who are curious about how their bodies work and love exciting stories with memorable characters. "Cell Wars II - Virus Invasion" makes complex biological concepts accessible and entertaining while delivering an important message about working together to overcome challenges.
