I have to begin this review by saying that my 4-yr-old daughter received this book for her birthday and that while the cover, author, and title are similar to the one shown above, there are differences. First of all, instead of the girl on the cover, we have a skeleton; and second, we have half the number of pages as listed above. That said, my girlie-girl has come to really like this book. I find her sitting alone, gazing through it with an inquisitive look on her face. [How cool is that!] The book labels lots of body parts --internal and external-- and discusses how we're different on the outside. It has given us a means of discussing bones and what lungs and hearts and such do. Sort of an invisible man for preschoolers. We've found nothing 'gross' in the texts and it is the only book I've found thus far that is on a simple enough level. (Of course, I skim over some details to keep it easy. We'll add those in later as she becomes more sophisticated.) Four stars because there could be even more. Touch and feel taste-buds, for example.
