5.0 out of 5 stars Great intro to anatomy for a young reader, February 18, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Eyewitness Visual Dictionaries: The Visual Dictionary of the Human Body (DK Visual Dictionaries) (Hardcover)
My 7-year-old son is very inquisitive, so I bought this for him and he loves it. He has read it a few times over now. He enjoys teaching his father and me about things he has learned from the book. My favorite part of the book is that it uses technical terms for body parts which helps a child learn in a healthy and non-judgemental environment. My favorite is when he came to me with the book and had me explain how he fit in my uterus and how in the world did the doctors take him out with his big head. He was very serious and concerned that it had to of hurt me. A close second was when he came to me very seriously, and described in detail while pointing to the pictures, how gas occurred and what paths it could take to exit the body (which is a huge accomplishment for a 7 year-old boy)

This book has started my son on a path of learning about all of the things that make little boys giggle and how somethings are natural and occur in everyone. It also has given him a starting place to ask questions and gain useful information about how to look at and treat his body in a positive manner.

This review is from: Eyewitness Visual Dictionaries: The Visual Dictionary of the Human Body (DK Visual Dictionaries) (Hardcover)
This books is a real winner with my 19 month old. She loves the pictures and has learned so many new words. As she grows up the book will grow with her, as it has great basic anatomy knowledge.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another hit from DK!, January 21, 2006
By 
Eileen Palsson (Sollentuna Sweden) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My six-year-old son loves this book. It is so exciting that he can barely wait for me to read the texts before he starts asking questions about the pictures.

This is a fun book to read to a kid. I'd say age 5-10 would be the appropriate age range.
