About the Book: My First Book About Genetics
Learning is fun with this entertaining and informative book about genetics.
Forty-six illustrations are accompanied by easy-to-read captions explaining that
genes are "chemical instructions" necessary for living things to stay alive and
reproduce. Perfect for kids ages 8 and up, this book describes what genes
control and how they are passed along from one generation to the next, genes and
DNA, genes and proteins, genes that turn on and those that turn off, genes that
protect us from harmful bacteria and viruses, and genes that scientists transfer
from one kind of living thing to another.
