"*This all-too-informative study deserves the wild popularity it will without doubt acquire." -- Booklist, starred review "Engaging, informative and downright disgusting." -- Kirkus Reviews "Expect this one to be passed around and pored over." -- School Library Journal "Carried away on a swift-flowing stream of body fluids, medical ineptitude, and O'Malley's deliciously snarky artwork, kids will agree they got exactly what they came for." -- BCCB
