Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Age appropriate Comment: The pictures in this book are interesting, colorful, and so non threatening. It is age appropriate for anyone looking for information about the human body who wants some facts and is not looking for a diagnosis as in a medial book. Customer Rating: Summary: Wonderful Comment: My child wants me to read this book each night as a bed time story. She is six and loves this book. Customer Rating: Summary: Comprehensive book for yound kids Comment: This is a great book for kids about the human body. My four year old loves reading and looking at this book and she has retained more information than I thought about the human body. It has been a great starting place for many discussions about the body - how blood works really fascinates her. The pictures are great and it has enough information on each page to be informative but not too boring. A great resource for young children about how the body works. Customer Rating: Summary: I even learned a lot! Comment: Great resource for young children! My 3-year-old is into skeletons, and the digestive process, so this book was good for his little curious mind. Obviously, some of the concepts are a little advanced, but he'll get there one day! I even learned a lot! Some of the pages in my book were a little off-print, but my fault for not exchanging it. Customer Rating: Summary: Fabulous book! Comment: I got this book for my 6 year old son. I have a few books about the body and I have found that most are not descriptive enough when going through the body systems. They were fine when my son was younger, but now he asks many more questions and I find myself having a harder time explaining how the body works. So, I got this book along with a real working stethascope for children. Every night he loves reading through a few pages at time of this book. He really enjoys telling others what he has learned the night before... Sometimes the infomation is a little too descript, and other times not enough. But, overall, it is an excellent book to help your child understand the wonders of the human body. I would highly recommend this for children 5 years old and up. More Reviews
