Description:

This is the tale of two molecules - Globin and Poietin - who set out to save a little girl's life. Written originally in French, it was read to many children in the Spring of 2002,by two actors. The success was such that we decided to publish a book. First in French, in July 2003. And now in English. Here are the adventures of Globin and Poietin who will take you into a tiny world, a world in the depths of Lily's body, where you will discover many other molecules who will do their best to help them in their endeavour. "Journey Into A Tiny World" is the story of Globin and Poietin's courage, fun and laughter. And with it, children will discover part of the very small world that thrives within every one of us.

Review from Killester, Dublin Ireland. [ No Rating ] 30 Jul 2007
Usually when I am learning something in school, I find it quite boring but this book makes learning fun. I didn’t know much about biology (how your body works) but after reading this book, I think I might find it interesting when I learn about it in school.

The book is about a little girl called Lily who is sick and goes to the doctor. It describes the journey that the medicine ( a little character called Poitin) makes when he goes into her body. He is trying to find her bone marrow so it can make more blood cells, which Lily needs to make her better. It’s packed with different characters he meets on the way ( like Globin and Pepsin and lots more). I found this book both enjoyable and edukayshional.
