Quarky is writing this for you...

The story

Quarky dives inside your chest to meet the tireless pump that sends blood to every corner of your body.

What you'll learn

  • Your heart is a muscle about the size of your fist.
  • It beats around 100,000 times every day, without a rest.
  • Blood carries oxygen and food to every part of your body.
  • Exercise makes your heart stronger, just like any muscle.
