"Scientists estimate that 80% of all infectious diseases are transmitted through hands, so it's especially important to be vigilant about keeping hands clean," said Nye, author of "Bill Nye the Science Guy's Great Big Book of Tiny Germs."
"That's why I teamed up with Wet Ones Antibacterial Hand Wipes to teach families about stopping the spread of germs in a fun and entertaining, yet educational, way. With a little information, parents and their children can worry less about getting sick so they can spend more time enjoying the things they love to do."
The Wet Ones franchise is owned by Energizer Holdings' Playtex unit.
