This early reading series engages young children in learning about their bodies and the functions of different parts of the human body. Each book begins with a general explanation and labeling of outside and inside body parts. The text then moves into a specific body part, its function, and how to keep it healthy. Large bold photographs and simple illustrations assist in understanding each concept. A table of contents, quiz, and picture glossary assist the youngest students with beginning exploration and research. Consultants used in creating the series include a physician for content and a reading specialist for literacy. Compared to other series about the body, this one is structured with just the right mix of questions, content, and repetition to hold the interest of your youngest readers. Index.
