Maddie Bradshaw seems like a typical eighth grader.

What’s the perfect environment for nasty germs to invade? A kid’s world! Young children are frequently exposed to harmful germs as they play in close quarters at day cares, schools and playgrounds.

Believing that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” The Giggle Guide^® prescribes these germ fighters to help families in the battle against the flu, while giving retailers a healthy sales boost: SquidSoap, Pipila, Crane and PureNight.
