My Own Human Body
Read Free Books and Download eBooks

This charming board book explains the human body in a series of words and pictures that easy enough to make sense to preschool boys and girls. The heavy board pages are die-cut in the shape of a smiling little boy. When kids lift the front cover, they remove his shirt and see the location of his heart. The text gives a simple explanation of how the heart pumps blood through the entire body. As kids turn successive pages, they observe the human body’s interior and learn about the functions of muscles, lungs, the skeleton, and the stomach and intestines. The book is both amusing and instructive, making special appeal to younger children’s natural curiosity about their bodies. (Ages 3-7)

This book is great for preschool age children in a hospital or medical setting. It aids the parent and/or nurse in explaing a specific body part and where it is located. The child can understand better why they are sick, having a secial treatment or surgery. It makes it not so scarry. Picture graphics are excellent.

Pretty good, but confusing. The last page shows the boy from the backside--the confusing thing is that is where they show the stomach, etc. So now my three year old thinks his tummy is on his back! The other pages are good. They show the muscles, bones, etc and provide comparisons the familiar objects. That is, on the skeleton page, they compare the bones to a tent pole holding up a tent. It's okay for my toddler to know what's in him, but even better for an older kid to actually get a basic understanding.

Bought for my 3 1/2 y'r old grandson he just loved it he was just fascinated by what the body could do. His cousin had the book and he wanted it also.
