BECKY BAINES is a children's book author and editor. She has written more than 10 books for kids on topics ranging from bones to eggs to spiders and her favorite—dogs. Her titles include Your Skin Holds You In, What's in That Egg?, and An Arctic Tale. Baines lives in Arlington, Virginia, with her awesome dog, Bob Barker.
Grade 1–2—This book will pique children's curiosity, especially when they "zigzag through" the unanswered questions in the back. The large text is easy to read; adults will need to assist with the additional facts in a smaller font. Color photographs and text explain that skin comes in different colors, has different features, heals itself while protecting us from bacteria, and stretches to accommodate pregnancy. The illustrations depict people of different ages and ethnicities. This title should help young readers come to a better understanding of their bodies.—Sandra Welzenbach, Villarreal Elementary School, San Antonio, TX
