Unwelcome guests — parasites — are everywhere, from the barnacles hitching a ride on a humpback whale’s head to the tiny flies that control a bee’s brain and make it literally dig its own grave. Now an expert team returns for an in-depth look at how these insidious critters do it, whether it’s leaping aboard moving targets or morphing their body shapes, and what their unwitting hosts have learned to do to fight back and reclaim their space. Back matter includes an index and a glossary. Review: Parasitologist approved! - As a parasitologist, I love this book. It is factual yet funny and my son from early on until even now at age 10, still loves this book. I gave a parasite demo to his class, and ordered these for those kids who wanted to know more. You don't have to like parasites, but if you want to learn a few things in a fun way, this is a great book! Review: My daughters favorite book - This is my 4 year old daughters new favorite book. After getting it from the library I purchased it for her because she was fascinated by every page. It does a great job describing parasites to young children and I recommend it to both children and adults. It’s both disgusting and very interesting. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,425,302 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #955 in Children's Books on Diseases & Physical Illness #1,133 in Children's Biology Books (Books) #1,864 in Children's Bug & Spider Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.9 out of 5 stars 28 Reviews | ## Images ![What's Eating You?: Parasites: The Inside Story (Animal Science) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81g8Igmpl-L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Parasitologist approved! *by S***G on December 10, 2020* As a parasitologist, I love this book.

I think that it is remains super FUN while being educational. I have bought it for several children (between the ages of 5 and 12) of friends of mine as well as nieces and nephews. The kids all get a huge kick out of this book and read it over and over and talk about it lots. This is one of those "fun for the whole family" books.
