Viv and Sanjay are the Inside Scouts! Together, they help animals. They have a cool superpower -- they can shrink super small. A cheetah got a cramp in her leg while she was running. Now she can't move her leg. The Inside Scouts put on their super-suits, grab their tools, and get really small! They go inside the cheetah's leg to stop the cramp. And they work together to help her muscle relax!
This series introduces beginning readers to the human body through mammals with similar anatomy -- and it does so in really fun ways! In this book, readers learn about the muscular system as Viv and Sanjay fix a cheetah's leg! With color-coded speech bubbles, easy-to-read text, and light nonfiction content, these engaging STEM-themed stories are the perfect fit for new readers!
