Review
"These slim titles are packed with more information, textually and visually, than most books twice their size...These attractive volumes are bubbling over with informative, full-color photographs taken inside and outside the bodies in question, tracing each process step by step as it occurs at every level-from the cell to the whole person. The texts are amazingly concise and take extraordinarily complex processes and make them clearly understandable to the intended audience, without ever becoming prurient or disgusting, which could easily have occurred."
--School Library Journal (April 2004) (School Library Journal 20040401)
"This colorful series, developed in conjunction with "The Learning Channel," catches student attention because of the vibrant photographs that accompany each page..The strength of the series is its easy-to-read style with simple paragraphs."
