Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 2–4—Addressing readers in a lively, breezy manner and inviting children to explore the structure and operation of their own bodies, this book has brightly colored pages with large cartoon-style illustrations and diagrams. The easy-to-read text is set in fairly large type and does an adequate job of explaining how the body and sensory systems work. Each paragraph or related group of short paragraphs is headed by a key word or words in bold type. In the center of each spread is an illustration, the right half of which has a bound-in flap that lifts to reveal an internal view of the body part. The spread labeled "Touch it! Taste it! Hear it!," for example, discusses nerve messages for touch, taste buds, the hearing receptors, and balance; the closed flap shows the areas of taste reception on the tongue; and the opened flap reveals a diagram of the inner-ear structure. This is a clever means of introducing body structure and functions in a way that children will enjoy reading and viewing.—Lynda Ritterman, Atco Elementary School, NJ
