Yes, Yes, Yes.  George Gamow wrote several books on physics, biology and
chemistry for novices, replete with cute sketches.  For Biology, see Dr.
Tompkins Inside Himself.  For History of Physics, see Thirty Years that
Shook the World.  For "atoms" and the like, see Mr. Tompkins in
Wonderland.  This is a books which includes short (~20 pages) stories
about various topics as advanced as general relativity, but also as
mundane as atomic physics.  If her precise interest isn't reflected in
one of these, let me know & I'll dig up names of some other likely
books.  If you go to the library & look under Gamow, I think you'll not
be disappointed.

Good luck.

Incidentally, I also know of some genetics, evolution and even calculus
comic books.
