Overview:
The DK Seriously Brilliant Biology set gathers three bestselling science titles - The Body Book, The DNA Book and The Bacteria Book - into one hardback collection for young scientists aged 7-9. Each title breaks a big biological topic into bite-sized, illustrated chunks covering human anatomy, genetics and microbiology. Written and reviewed by real science communicators, including bestselling author Steve Mould, the set turns curiosity into genuine understanding, making it an ideal gift for STEM-loving children and a great addition to any home library or classroom shelf.
About the Books:
The Body Book tours human anatomy, exploring the brain, skeleton and immune system, alongside a timeline of medical milestones from ancient remedies to 3D-printed prosthetics. The DNA Book unpacks the molecule found in every living thing, explaining why we inherit our parents' eye colour, how forensic scientists use DNA evidence to solve crimes, and whether extinct species could ever return - all through friendly illustrated characters and clear diagrams. The Bacteria Book, written by Steve Mould and longlisted for the Blue Peter Book Awards, dives into the hidden world of microbes: glowing squid, mouldy bread and soil-dwelling organisms all get their moment, revealing how bacteria, viruses and fungi shape everyday life and health. Together the three books move from the visible human body to the invisible genetic code and finally to the microscopic organisms around us. Each uses the same winning DK formula: punchy text, remarkable photography and quirky illustrated characters that keep facts memorable. Themes of forensic science, medical history and ecosystem health give children real-world hooks for topics that might otherwise feel abstract, while a consistent visual style ties the collection together.
