Lice

In an hilarious spin on insect books, this lavishly illustrated survival guide for lice--by lice--helps us all understand the miracle every natural creature is.

No one likes lice, even the award-winning Spanish
illustrator Berta P ramo, whose other books have explored bodily fluids and
stinky things. But lice are miraculous creatures too and understanding them can help us learn that disgust and respect are two sides of one coin.Head lice can lift two thousand times their body
weight. They can touch and taste with their entire body. They have claws
perfectly suited to the diameter of the human hair, so they are very picky.
They live only on human heads--and will die in a matter of minutes elsewhere.This guide tells lice everything they need to
know to survive in the harsh environment of the human head. It prepares them for
every danger. And in doing so, it will give readers a sense of humor for the
next infestation, and help cultivate an understanding and tolerance for all
life on earth--no matter
how much it itches
