[Inhabiting Books]

An excellent introduction to the functioning of various body organs and systems. It also has lots of great experiments/activities to try at home to demonstrate the various ways the body works. Such a fun, interesting book that my older girls, especially my seven-year-old, keep re-reading, and sharing with the rest of us. They have had a blast trying the various activities.

This book has many answers many children might have like; why does my stomach hurt, or what happens to the food I eat? This book is a great introduction to what the human body can do. I was amazed by the illustrations of the internal organs of the body. I was also impressed with the see-through sections that let you explore the body from inside and out.
