Bacteria are tiny microorganisms that exist all around us and even inside our bodies. While many bacteria are beneficial to humans, some can cause illness.

Antibiotics are medicines designed to fight bacterial infections by either killing bacteria or preventing them from reproducing.

This Baby Medical School book introduces these concepts to young children through simple explanations and engaging illustrations, making these complex topics approachable for early learners.

Children will learn about good bacteria that help our bodies, bad bacteria that can make us sick, and how antibiotics work as medicine to help us feel better.

The book uses age-appropriate analogies and examples to help children understand the importance of proper healthcare and medicine.

Series: Baby Medical School

Baby Medical School is a series within the larger Baby University collection of educational board books that introduces complex medical concepts to very young children in simple, engaging ways.

The Baby Medical School: Bacteria and Antibiotics book is created by Cara Florance, a biochemist with experience in astrobiology, and Jon Florance, a Harvard Medical School student, combining their expertise to create accurate yet accessible content for children.

Each book in the series takes a complex medical topic and breaks it down into approachable concepts with colourful illustrations and simple language that even the youngest readers can enjoy.

The Baby Medical School series aims to demystify healthcare concepts for children, helping them understand their bodies and how medicine works in a fun, non-frightening way.

Cara Florance is a biochemist specialising in catalytic RNA. She has a BS in chemistry from Iona College and PhD in biochemistry from University of Colorado, Boulder. She lives in Boston with her husband and two children. Her little girls inspired her to create Brave the Elements, an online resource for parents to bring science into the home.

Jon Florance attends Harvard Medical School and has completed his clinical year at Massachusetts General Hospital. Previously, he received a BS in Mathematics from West Point and served in the US Army as an infantryman and Green Beret. While also enjoying forestry and science fiction, his happiest moments are as a father of two beautiful young children.
