Bill Nye meets Green Eggs and Ham in this playful and rhythmic nonfiction picture book that introduces readers to the concept of DNA, and celebrates the similarities we share with all life-forms--and each other!
DNA is the ABC
of what makes you, you
and what makes me, me.
Did you know we share DNA with every living thing? Humans, bugs, bears, even a virus--we all have shared DNA hidden inside us!
From a debut author and an award-winning illustrator, here is a bouncy and playful picture book--perfect for the classroom or for story time--about the genetic code that makes up all living things, and reminds us that we're all more alike than we think.
“A peppy, approachable intro to a big topic” —Publishers Weekly
“...delivers a solidly worthy message grounded in biochemical fact.” —Kirkus Reviews
“…will certainly pique the curiosity of future scientists.” —School Library Journal
“A fun introduction to the concept of DNA and genetics, and how we are all connected in some way with other animals around us.” —Ben Kleinstiver, PhD, Harvard Medical School and Mass General Research Institute
