Do Not Lick This Book

This is a funny and informative book to teach young kids about germs. I bought this book to use in my kindergarten classroom and the kids love it. You take Min the microbe on an adventure looking closely at germs and how they are spread. It does a nice job of showing how gross germs are but also keeps it cute and silly for young readers to understand and stay engaged while also allowing for deeper discussion. I incorporate this into our science lessons about germs and how they are spread.

My granddaughters showed me this book at the library we read it right then I knew I had to have it. It is hilarious kids loves it I loved it I love watching their eyes light up when they see something so unbelievably interesting and hilarious. They made this book just perfect for a young reader

Purchase this book along with another to help my classrooms learn about germs. The kids love seeing the germs in the book and that you can lick a spot on the back. They did not want to lick the book. We also did an experiment learning about handwashing in our class. They have been really working on washing hands now.

Does your child hate washing their hands? Well, this book helps them to understand what germs are and how they are transferred from one thing to another. I really like the book, but my child still hates washing his hands.

My granddaughters favorite book! She even picked it for me to read to her 5K class when I went as a guest reader so I purchased a second one to gift our classroom.

My kids (3 and 1)love this book they love the interactive part of it putting their fingers on the circle to pick up min. We have been using a digital microscope to look at all types of things super close up so this really brought it all together in a fun educational way.

I'm a nurse and I use this book for teaching kids in classrooms about germs. With the spread of Coronavirus it's important to understand how germs spread. This one gives amazing photos of common surfaces and has great explanations of germs. I covered certain pages where you touch the spot with clear packing tape to make it easy to use a wipe for sanitizing (since it encourages readers to interact with the pages by touch). Super fun book to read.

My 6 yr old daughter loves this book and would often read it and laugh to herself. It's interactive, though probably not too desirable during Covid. But I like how it introduce the idea of microbs and germs to kids, in a way which they can see and interact with.

This book is great! My 6 year loved it. We all learned from it's contents and we're no longer tempted to lick the book by the end! Wish there were other ones like this. Definitely piqued my sons curiosity and got him reading!

This is a lovely book. I really appreciate the details that went into it.

This book is so incredibly clever (and in the time of a pandemic, more relevant than ever)! It will certainly make you more conscious of what is happening when you touch your face, your shirt or anything else. It's smart science, condensed into kid-friendly content, with the cutest cartoon illustrations and impressive microscopic photography. It's funny, interactive and educational: the children's book trifecta. Plus, I LOVE that bright yellow cover.

Good
