Age Level: I think that this book is 3-8th level because it has some complicated things but shows it in an easy way. If it is read to a student in 3rd grade then they can use the activities, or an 8th grader can use it to help them study in a simpler way.

Summary: This book defines things of and in the human body. Like the lungs, heart, and muscles. It gives examples of it in the form of pictures and activities.

Review: I think that this would be a great book to have in the classroom. It is a great reference book to help explain science things in a simple and fun manner.

Good book for a basic body book..downfalls are the extra activities mostly require the magic viewer & there's a feather- both were lost before I got my hands on the book so I can't review that part(though looks informative).

There is nothing sexual so most parents should be okay with younger children reading it. 📚
It goes over the heart & bloodstream, bones, muscles & joints, and the skin.

Has a bit of information i already knew, some i forgot or didn't learn(i didn't get a proper education growing up but i did read some more advanced medical books i got my hands on in my teens).
