The Little Cell Who Lost Its Way

Ramtin Resai-Kashkooli, Carolyn Leslie

One little cell had a very big dream.
In order to achieve this, it bonded with a team.

Merging together, the cells reaped lots of benefits
By forming strong bonds through the process of myogenesis.

Combining peer-reviewed science with an engaging rhyming text and fun illustrations, The Little Cell Who Lost Its Way tells the story of how an individual microscopic cell organises with others just like it to become a strong and flexible muscle fibre.

This book has been created for young children who are beginning to learn about the life sciences, and in this example, how cells form the building blocks of the body. It touches on themes of teamwork, biological development and the mysterious scientific process known as ‘myogenesis’.

It’s also great for education students and teachers who are exploring how to communicate complex scientific concepts to young people.
