Sid the science Kid: The Trouble with Germs

 I read “Sid the science Kid: The Trouble with Germs”

 Sid’ father caught a cold. He and his wife told Sid to wash his hands so as not to catch his father’s cold germs. However, he could not understand why had to wash his hands because he did not see any germs in his hand. His mother explained germs were too small to see with their eyes. Then she showed him germs with a very strong microscope. At school, his teacher talked about germs. He learned that germs were invisible, but he could pass them to people. When he got home, he washed his hands first. 

 Children can learn it is important to wash their hands to read this story. I thought that this book is very good for not only children who live in English-speaking countries but also Japanese children because they can learn English at the early stages. I hope “Sid the science Kid”—series of this book will be introduced to elementary school education.
