From bones to blood, skin to saliva, kids can learn how every part of the body plays a role in keeping things running smoothly in Interactive Explorer: Bodyworks. They'll learn how their ears help them keep their balance, how their brains learn to ignore your skin sensors, and that their eyes produce tears constantly, even when they're not the least bit sad. And with lift-up acetate pages, flaps, wheels, and windows, uncovering these facts will be fun and exciting!
Perfect for kids ages 8 and up, Interactive Explorer: Bodyworks is a complete look at the hows and whys of the human body-and the ways that our inner structures shape our lives.
