K-3Curious Nell series.
Translated by Amanda Mayer Stinchecum.
An import in the same spirit as Everyone Poops and The Gas We Pass, All about Scabs is just that. Simple, childlike drawings and a brief text give a clear explanation of the science of scabs. Text alternates between facts and the believable dialogue of different children wondering and talking about scabs.
