The Super-Cells of the micro-verse
Human Body Theater meets Hilo, in this funny, heartfelt dive inside Leon‘s knee.
Leon, a daredevil 5-year-old, shrugs off epic tumbles, while his young skin cell, Holly, gasps to guard him from the world's germs. But, when a tiny nail sends him to the ER, where caterpillar doctors and bee nurses scramble to find the source of his excruciating pain, it tears Holly‘s micro-verse and unleashes the evilest germ gang.
The Super-Cells assemble: elite macrophage soldiers hunt the rude invaders, caring platelets grab the runaway baby blood cells, and builder fibroblasts hammer the wound shut. In the end, it‘s up to Holly to bravely split into new skin cells and save her human from his major tiny scratch.

My Why:
When my oldest started reading, he devoured Dog-Man and Hilo, so I looked for a comic to educate him too. We found many fun and colorful STEM books, but dry facts lost him halfway, and he never touched them again.
Inspired by the brilliant way Inside Out explains emotions to kids, I decided to create a science book that captivates him with vibrant comics, a page-turning story, and at the end, gain powerful scientific knowledge with no effort. I turned cells into quirky characters and the wound-healing process into a hilarious action story.
He could not put the book down and he still remembers every cell in the process.
I want to share this gift of science with all the kids, making learning a fun journey they will never forget.
Nina Vouraki Kramer
With a Master‘s in Chemical Engineering and a decade of tutoring challenged students, I learned how to turn complex STEM concepts into fun, memorable stories.
As a mom of 3, I picked up the pen to answer the 1,000 questions I face daily. I fell in love teaching my kids science through comics. So I created the Three Lethal Kids series, to answer questions about the human body, why dogs are our best friends, evolution, why do we have brains, and what is AI with science, color and imagination.
