My kids (4 and 6) have loved the See Inside Your Body book and were hoping to have the same reaction to this one but didn't.

The book is informative and text is good for the most part, though I did have issue with "Chemistry Lab" terminology when referencing a part of the brain. I found the page spreads to be a little confusing and cluttered. Visually it was hard to figure out the flow of where to read first. Also all the neurons were red (which I guess they have to be), but they were all over the place. A little bit more white space would have helped.

Still a good book, and kudos to Usborne for explaining a complex organ to young kids.
