Jean, Condi, and Sonia along with Nurse Florence are the stars of this book Nurse Florence®, How Does Our Hair Grow. The three girls meet with Nurse Florence in the cafeteria and Jean mentions wanting to grow her hair out. This leads to a detailed discussion about human hair and the girls are excited to learn from Nurse Florence. The interactions between the four of them are adorable and also educational. This is a good book to help reinforce the science concepts learned about in class, that is for sure.

He deployed six times for the global war on terror between 2005 and 2009, officially retiring in 2010. Although he had a temporary leave from medical science to fight in the Armed Forces, Michael always had a passion for the human body and science, so he eventually used his GI bill to go through nursing school and graduated in August 2020.
