________

Lift more than 90 flaps and discover what goes on in your body–from the top of your head to the tips of your toes.

Go on a head-to-toe tour of the human body with Dr. Punam Krishan in this lift-the-flap book for 5-7-year-olds and open doors to the extraordinary science within you.

Taking you through all the key body parts, Dr Punam Krishan tells you everything you’ve ever wanted to know about yourself. Discover the maze that is the brain, the power of your muscles, and the magic behind the gut - and how they are all connected!

This human body book for children offers:

• Lots of interactive flaps that teach children how their bodies work and the link between physical and emotional wellbeing.
• Content written by GP and TV doctor, Dr Punam Krishan, whose passion for physical and mental health shines through on every page.
• Bite-sized facts, easy-to-understand explanations, engaging questions, and colorful, annotated illustrations.

The human body performs incredible tasks, but how well do you know what’s going on in there? Do you know why your heart beats differently when you're happy or scared, or how you move and eat, or even why you fart? With fun, bite-sized facts, colorful illustrations, and more than 90 flaps to lift, every page is an eye-opening discovery.
