T ToxMystery, the National Library of Medicine® interactive learning site for kids, now has a homepage in Spanish.

The new homepage allows users to start the game in Spanish, with Toxie the Cat helping them to explore the site's "house of hazards." Gamers can move between Spanish and English by selecting the language tab in the upper right of the page.

An illustrated glossary of the words used in ToxMystery has also been added to the Teacher's Resource page. The glossary is available in Spanish from the "Para maestros" section. The glossary can also be found at //toxmystery.nlm.nih.gov/tmglosario.pdf (Spanish) and //toxmystery.nlm.nih.gov/tmglossary_eng.pdf (English).
