This is a bunch of fun. A frolic through the intestinal system, and all the other systems of the human body. Adam Kay has quite the sense of humour, this tied to the awesome illustrations make this thoroughly engaging. Yes, lots of squirmy inside secret body business in here. It is the sort of book that will appeal to a bunch of kids pouring over it and shrieking at the squirmy bits that are inside them.
Funny, informative, inclusive, and while *I* got a bit tired of all the fart and bogey jokes after a while, I'm pretty sure kids will love them, lol. I particularly liked how he made a point of normalising things like non-neurotypical conditions, disabilities, gender variety, etc., and didn't shy away from difficult topics like death, depression, eating disorders, etc. I'd rec this to anyone with kids as a wonderful way to package a lot of interesting, important, and delightfully gross informati...
This will probably be a surefire hit with younger readers, it's fascinating and full of interesting information about the human body. There's a humourously silly element which will help make learning fun.
For the first time ever i find a non fiction book that i would have liked more in text form than audio. I guess jokes aimed at kids get a quiet smirk from me if I am reading them, but when they are actually performed they get fucking annoying. Maybe i should stop reading kids' books, but that's a load of rubbish
Phenomenal!Funny, witty and informative book for children (and adults) to learn about the body. Recommend reading it with your child so you can discuss some of the more embarrassing aspects together and have a good chat about it all.
So funny
So interesting! That is so informative and funny! I love it!
I loved this book so much, and just like the marvelous medicine it was brilliant! 5 starts to this one.
hilarious, didn't feel like an encyclopedia at all. as a med student it gave me insight on how to explain processes or conditions to patients in very simple terms.
For children.
It is very informative and also very funny.
Fun, easy to read, kids will love it. I would say best suited to age around 10 however my 8 year old enjoyed us reading this together. I needed to skim over the reproduction chapter as was a little more in depth than is needed at his age, depends on how mature your child is though I guess. Def worth placing on any young readers bookshelf.
Engaging and interactive biology lesson.Kay brings his entertaining persona and humorous attitude towards the body to a younger audience, giving us Gray's Anatomy (a joke no child will understand) for children.Narrating this audiobook himself, he is joined by Skeleton, by Heart, Lungs, etc, who 'help' him explain the workings of each organ and system of the body, with quizzes, 'True or Poo' (true or false), fun facts, and lots of 'Horrible History'-type detail that will have the kids laughing ('...
