Reviews
Gr 3-7-Research has shown "bizarre elaboration" to have a significant positive effect on retention, especially of vocabulary. "Other easier-to-pronounce names for the esophagus are food funnel, nutrient hose, provisions pipe, chow spout, hamburger highway, taco tunnel, and sausage chute." Readers will remember lots of anatomy and physiology facts once they've ingested this profusely illustrated, super-goofy fun fest.α(c) Copyright 2013.

Filled with gross-out details that are 99.9% fact-free, this title combines science parodies with cartoon diagrams that will appeal to all those grade-schoolers who feel overwhelmed by the textbook approach to human anatomy. Lips are important: without lips you wouldn’t be able to talk properly, use straws, wear lipstick, get lip piercings, or make pretend farting noises. Then there are pimples (small pus-packed protuberances), the appendix (nobody knows why we have the stupid things), and much more. Each wild anatomical fact appears opposite a big black-and-white drawing that extends the silliness with additional text: inside the image of a stomach, a bearded man yells, Let me out of here, you stupid artist! Great for sharing, even in science class. Grades 3-7. --Hazel Rochman
