To Our Readers
In this special issue of Time For Kids, we offer some tips for protecting that most valuable of all treasures-your health. We also try to explain some mysteries: how germs make you sick, why you need so many shots, why the doctor does all those strange things during a checkup. We are extremely grateful to Merck & Co., Inc. for making this special issue possible.
