This book is all about the human body. It is geared towards kids to let them know what their body is going through or what their bodies will be going through. At the beginning of the book there is a table of contents. It is divided into 6 different parts. Each of those parts are broken down into more specific areas of each part. This is probably one of the few books that I’ve read that you can possibly substitute for a textbook. Robie Harris provides a wealth of information to those who are willing to listen. Better yet, Michael Emberley, the illustrator, creates incredibly detailed drawings throughout the book while keeping truly explicit images to a minimum. I think a strong point of this book is also its attention to detail. The book practically discusses everything related to sex and reproduction. In the health classroom, it could prove as a good visual tool for the instructor. I could also see it be useful in a school where child care courses are available. The vocabulary is on par with what students are thought in science as well. Overall, this is a great book that can be used in the classroom under the right guidance.
