In a hilarious spin on insect books, this lavishly illustrated survival guide by lice, for lice, helps us all understand the miracle every natural creature is.
No one likes lice, even the award-winning Spanish illustrator Berta Paramo, whose other books have explored bodily fluids and stinky things, among other things. But lice are living creatures too, possessing many amazing talents and facing many challenges to survive.
Head lice can lift two thousand times their bodyweight. They can touch and taste with their entire body. They have claws perfectly suited to the diameter of the human hair, so they are very picky.They live only on human heads-and will die in a matter of minutes elsewhere.
This guide tells lice everything they need to know to survive in this harsh environment they call home. It prepares them forevery danger. And in doing so, it will give readers a sense of humor for the next infestation, and help cultivate an understanding and tolerance for all life on earth - no matter how much it itches!
