""Invaders and protectors face off in the human digestive system. Pale-skinned, red-haired young Sophia’s down for the count with a stomachache. Elcomb and Po offer readers an up-close look at the causes of—and solution to—her ailment.[...] Po’s artwork combines imagination with accuracy; the central players are portrayed both as they appear under a microscope and in their blobby, cartoonish forms. [...] A STEAM winner, sure to inspire future physicians—and reassure young hypochondriacs."" — Kirkus Reviews
