Germs

By Collins, Ross

Publishers Summary:
Pox is not an ordinary germ. Sure, like other germs he takes the bubonic bus to Germ Academy, and he proves that he is unhealthy before he attends school. But Pox just doesn't understand why he should want to make a person miserable. Poor Pox is stuck at the bottom of his class.

A delightfully silly-and educational-story from the nearly germ-free Ross Collins.A hilarious and unique look at how we get sick-from the germ's point of view!A Junior Library Guild Selection
