Survive! Vol.1

Survive! Inside the Human Body, Volume 1 begins an epic journey through the human body with a look at the digestive system. This lively, full-color science comic explores Phoebe's insides after she accidentally swallows a microscopic ship. The only problem? Dr. Brain (the ship's eccentric inventor) and Phoebe's friend Geo are on board!

Geo and Dr. Brain must avoid danger at every turn?¢like hazardous stomach acid and feeding parasites. (Ew!) Will they escape? You've got a front-row seat as they travel through Phoebe's esophagus, stomach, and intestines.

Have you ever wondered...

• How antacids work?
• How our bodies break down food and absorb nutrients?
• Why we have sphincters?
• How the stomach protects itself from its own acid?
• How doctors cure patients who have parasites living in their digestive systems?
• Why we have trillions of friendly microbes living inside of us?
