This book is really wonderful! - It’s not only thoroughly informative, but so dynamically presented in size and lavish color, that it serves as such a wonderful tool to inspire not only young readers but grown ups alike! -It definitely brings excitement to learning about science and the human body! -I highly recommend this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm so impressed with this book
My 4 year old is obsessed with the human body. She asked me to teach her the names of all the bones (which I already knew from my training as an EMT when I was younger) so I have (I made up a silly song to sing and she loves it and it worked super well). I got her a kids' book about bones but it just doesn't have enough to keep teaching her so I went out on a limb and bought this. What I love is that it's so picture based so even though there's more than enough information here to keep her busily learning for years, the pictures grab her attention now in her pre-reader years. Being that she is only 4, my husband and I were a little concerned about how much detail they would go into on reproductive systems but I feel like it's totally kid appropriate for parents that wish to make sure their kids know the difference in male bodies and female bodies and aren't ready to go into much else yet. It does have illustrations of babies in utero but doesn't go into how they get out much to my relief. My daughter was born via c-section so she knows a doctor had to cut her out of my body but we haven't gone into the more traditional way babies are born yet. She didn't even notice the male anatomical photos yet and since there are no "external" genitalia photos (just cross sections to show the anatomy), I don't think she'll notice for a while. We have just decided to be very matter of fact about how our bodies are different when it comes up. There is a bit another reviewer mentioned about evolution so if you're a creationist, you may want to be prepared to discuss the differences in beliefs. What she has really focused on in her first 24 hours of having the book are the skeleton so she can show off how she knows the names of the bones already and she is very intrigued about the muscles and of course, how her food turns into waste through the digestive system and the urinary system. She is also fascinated by the blow up of the human head and all that is inside it. She also found the bit in the back of the book about how zero gravity affects the body because the other thing she is fascinated by are astronauts and space and she saw the astronaut in a space suit and got super excited. I think we're going to learn the digestive system and urinary system next since that is where her obvious fascination lies at the moment. But this is a really awesome book. I'm upstairs working and can hear her asking her dad if they can look at her new "skeleton book". To her, all internal anatomical diagrams are skeletons still, but we're working on it. I absolutely can't wait for her to be in preschool next year telling a teacher she banged her patella on something. Now if I could just get her to practice writing and sounds of the ABCs with the same enthusiasm she has for anatomy. After about 2.5 minutes of ABCs, she's off to the science and math sections of her pre-k workbooks. I've tried painting, writing with pencils, crayons, markers, white boards, magnets, play dough, videos and games on her tablet. The kid just cannot be entertained into learning phonics. I may have the only 4 year old that can tell you that your xiphoid process is the cartilage at the tip of your sternum in the middle of your chest but can't sing her ABCs all the way through yet and would rather do pretty much anything than trace or practice writing letters.
4.0 out of 5 stars Worth cost
Good overview
5.0 out of 5 stars Great teacher’s helper.
My grandson absolutely loves the books on human anatomy. Not sure why his obsession, but I enjoy watching him really enjoying knowing what he can about something he has grown passionate about.
Great book with nice and detailed graphics and text that make things interesting.
