From boogers to bruises, real-life pediatrician Betty Choi answers curious kids' questions about the weird and amazing ways our bodies work.

What do the colors of my boogers mean when I have a cold? If I hold my pee too long, could my bladder explode? Why do bruises change color?

Pediatrician Betty Choi gives honest answers to 53 curious questions in this kid-friendly Q&A, with easy-to-follow, fun comics by illustrator Jannie Ho.

In the process, Dr. Choi shows kids how amazing and resilient their bodies really are and that doctors are here to help.

Readers will:

- Engage with quirky and colorful comic illustrations
- Explore the major systems of the body in a fun Q&A format
- Learn how the body heals and how to care for the body
