Product Description
The Uncover series combines the best elements of a book with model elements to help readers truly "uncover" the mysteries of what makes things work. A fascinating three-dimensional presentation allows in-depth, hands-on exploration of the subject at hand. This unique "model" is easily build, deconstructed and re-built layer by layer, system by system just by turning a page, until an understanding of the topic is achieved. The complexities of the human body can be daunting, particularly for children. This book-model combination takes some of the mystery out of how the body works. It covers all the major systems and processes. Children get to look at each system on a different page, then by closing the book, combine them into a whole. 16 pages. Ages 8+

5 out of 5 stars GREAT book   January 6, 2009
My 4 year old grandson who is learning all obout the body absolutely LOVES this book!!!!


5 out of 5 stars We wore one copy out and had to buy another.   October 31, 2008
My daughter got this book at 3 or 4 and loves it still at 9. My 6 year old son has loved it since he was old enough to want to pry out the body parts. The kids have had hundreds of books yet this remains one of their favorites. We have read it so many times the body parts have begun breaking out. The kids wouldn't let me toss the worn out book until I promised to buy a new copy. Every family should have a copy of this book for the kids.


5 out of 5 stars A great book   October 6, 2008
My two sons, ages 4 and 5y, love this book. It is great hands on exploring and explains the body in layers to help make it clearer. My parents also enjoyed this book!


5 out of 5 stars love it   September 29, 2008
My daughter is 2 1/2 and is facinated with anatomy. She loves how this book "peels" away the layers!


5 out of 5 stars Great for younger kids too!   May 2, 2008
My daughter at age 6 received this book as a gift from her uncle. She wasn't interested in it at all. Surprisingly, my son (age 3 at the time) grabbed it and has been coveting it for a year now.

A year has gone by and the book (minus a few pieces) is still in good shape, and best of all. At age 4, my son knows the name of every organ and it's location.

The only issue for younger kids is that the small organs can break off so I wouldn't recommend it for kids younger then 3.
