Dans les souliers d'Amédée (Histoires de vivre)
Par Véronique Lambert. 2022

Mummies and murder: bodies in the swamp (X-books. Strange)
Par N. B Grace. 2020
"When a mummy is discovered in Denmark, museum experts are brought in to determine the body's origin. With many clues…
and facts, scientists try to discover why this ancient man was murdered." -- Provided by publisherAmerican murderer: the parasite that haunted the South (Medical fiascoes series)
Par Gail Jarrow. 2022
"Imagine microscopic worms living in the soil. They enter your body through your bare feet, travel to your intestines, and…
stay there for years sucking your blood like vampires. You feel exhausted. You get sick easily. It sounds like a nightmare, but that's what happened in the American South during the 1800s and early 1900s. Doctors never guessed that hookworms were making patients ill, but zoologist Charles Stiles knew better. Working with one of the first public health organizations, he and his colleagues treated the sick and showed Southerners how to protect themselves by wearing shoes and using outhouses so that the worms didn't spread. Although hookworm was eventually controlled in the United States, the parasite remains a serious health problem throughout the world. The topic of this STEM book remains relevant and will fascinate young readers interested in medicine, science, history-and gross stories about bloodsucking creatures." -- Provided by publisherSkulls!

while you snooze! It repairs, and resets, and helps your body even when you aren't awake.

For grades 3-6The deadliest diseases then and now (Deadliest #01)
Par Deborah Hopkinson. 2021
"The deadly outbreak of plague known as the Great Mortality, which struck Europe in the mid 1300s and raged for…
four centuries, wiped out more than 25 million people in the course of just two years. With its vicious onslaught, life changed for millions of people almost instantaneously. Deadly pandemics have always been a part of life, from the Great Mortality of the Middle Ages, to the Spanish Influenza outbreak of 1918, to the eruption of COVID-19 in our own century. Many of these diseases might have seemed like things to read about in history books -- until the unthinkable happened, and our own lives were turned upside down by the emergence of the novel coronavirus. As we learn more about COVID-19, we may be curious about pandemics of the past. Knowing how humans fought diseases long ago may help us face those of today. In this fast-paced, wide-ranging story filled with facts, pictures, and diagrams about diseases -- from plague to smallpox to polio to flu -- critically acclaimed Sibert Honor author Deborah Hopkinson brings voices from the past to life in this exploration of the deadliest diseases of then and now." -- Provided by publisherTo the front!: Clara Barton braves the battle of Antietam
Par Claudia Friddell. 2022
During the Civil War, nurse Clara Barton carefully snuck her wagon filled with supplies and provisions onto the field where…
Antietam, the bloodiest battle of the war, was set to take place. On the day of the battle, Clara and her team of helpers sprang into action. She found herself comforting the wounded and dying, cooking meals for soldiers, and providing doctors with innovative sources of light so they could see better. No soldier went unnoticed or unaided by the woman called "The Angel of Antietam." Author Claudia Friddell blends her words with Clara Barton's firsthand account to capture the nurse's brave actions while Christopher Cyr's accurate and dramatic illustrations portray one of the most heroic women in history.

Par Melisa Holmes. 2022
"Did an adult just give you this book? Did you roll your eyes or laugh a little? Either reaction would…
be normal because this book is going to give you a lot of information that may seem awkward. It can also be a little funny, but it's really important. It's about puberty--that time when your body starts changing to look more grown up. Sometimes it may seem as if you are the only one dealing with body changes, but every body goes through puberty. When you understand what's happening to your body, you worry less and you better care for yourself. And whether you're learning about your own body or about bodies that are different from yours, it's normal to be curious, and it's great to understand that puberty is for every body. Learning about this stuff might make you feel excited, interested, embarrassed, or just plain awkward. However, your feeling is normal. Keep reading. The more you learn, the more comfortable you'll be." -- Provided by publisherI'm a psychologist (Health Heroes)
