What Our Readers Say…
Well written, age appropriate.I have this book for my 7 year old son and it is such a great book for boys to have. All body parts are referred to by their proper name and the illustrations are anatomically correct so that kids don’t get confused.
The book explains just enough information to answer questions but doesn’t overwhelm them with more information than they “need” to know at this age and it’s written for them to understand what they are reading. The author, Dr. M, also has a website to accompany the books for kids to play activities and a community page for parents. You can tell that there was a lot of thought put into these books as they are well written and incredibly useful, my son loves it. He has read it quite a few times and pretty soon, my youngest will be getting his turn with the book.
I have tried 2 other books but they were too long and a bit confusing, I wasn’t very impressed with the style in which they were written. I also felt like other books I’ve considered buying were too generalized and didn’t focus on different age groups and that is very important because kids at different ages are learning different things and something that a 7 year old needs to know about his body isn’t the same thing that a 15 year old needs to know. Anatomy for Kids breaks it down really well.
