Human Body (Shine-A-Light)

Book Synopsis

Discover the secrets of the human body with this beautiful new Shine-a-Light title. Children can see muscles flex as a football is kicked, watch food travel through the digestive system as an apple is eaten, and take a peek at the skeleton holding a small boy upright while his height is measured. Sleep, dreaming, growing, and illness are also included, along with many other secrets of the human body.

The unique design of the book allows children to discover a “hidden” image by holding the page up to a bright light, or shining a torch behind the page.

Our Review Panel says...

This engaging picture book invites readers to interact by shining a torch through each page to reveal hidden details in the pictures of different body parts, such as the food travelling through the digestive system or the baby inside the mother’s uterus. The pictures, hidden images and text work together to create perfectly interactive information books that both delight and intrigue their readers. Remember to supply a torch too!
