From the Inside Flap:
Readers of all ages will be fascinated by cross-sections, cutaways, and gatefolds that reveal what the body really looks like on the inside, as well as life-size photo realistic illustrations of the entire digestive system, the bone structure from foot to pelvis, and more. An informative text explains all the body's systems and highlights little-known activities taking place just beneath our skin.
From Publishers Weekly:
In this handsomely designed oversize book, Rowan (Can You Get Warts from Touching Toads?) makes clever use of superlatives to explain the remarkable workings of the human body?the sperm is the "most upwardly mobile cell"; vacuoles boast "the greatest delivery service systems" of any cell. Interspersed among concise, accessible explanations of key body parts and functions are other little-known physical attributes, such as the body's fastest-growing part (hair), hardest substance (tooth enamel), most colorful muscle (the eye's iris) and strongest joints (the hip's). Temperton's meticulous, lifelike renderings range from elaborate cross-sections to detailed spot art, while complete or partial fold-outs on 10 pages afford a more realistic scale and show precisely what lies beneath specific body parts. Much of Rowan's text is presented in extended captions, so that the information is easy to comprehend and?well?digest. Ages 8-12.
