Review

The amazingly realistic skeleton model is literally a snap to assemble, and it's fully articulated. Too; it bends in all the right places. The accompanying booklet is a model of science writing, starting with the lead: "Imagine yourself with no bones at all...You'd be a big pulsating blob..." Topics covered, in addition to bones, include the bodily systems, and even an introduction to evolution. The entire ensemble comes in a domed display jar perfect for housing the skeleton, once assembled. (Parent's Choice)

Make no bones about it, the "Bones Book and Skeleton" is a terrific tool to help kids learn about their bodies. -- REVIEWS

From the Publisher

Enormously popular with young naturalists, the innovative HAND IN HAND WITH NATURE activity books combine field guides with field materials to make science come alive. The information is lively, the activities engaging, the learning serious-and the packaging irresistible. And you just can't beat getting your hands on a bug, or looking at a bird beak to beak. The numbers bear in out, too-the series has over 5.3 million copies in print. Also in the series: NEADERTHAL BOOK & SKELETON, combining kids' love for bones with their curiosity about prehistoric life; THE BONES & SKELETON GAMEBOOK, a large-sized collection of activities and games that allows kids to find out even more about the human body; THE POND BOOK & THE TADPOLE TANK, a full-color field guide to the inhabitants of our murky-water ecosystems; THE BIRD BOOK & THE BIRD FEEDER, both a field guide and an attraction for the field; THE BEACH BOOK & THE BEACH BUCKET, allowing kids to discover the enormous variety of saltwater fish and vegetation as well as providing tools to explore through the sand; the WILDFLOWER FIELD GUIDE AND PRESS FOR KIDS, enlivening and updating the tradition of plant collecting and preserving; THE BUG BOOK & THE BUG BOTTLE, the best-selling tool for catching, viewing and learning about creepy crawlies; and THE GARDEN BOOK & THE GREENHOUSE, a complete package for the young gardener.
