How many skin cells do we lose every minute? What do the trillions of bacteria that live in our bodies do? How does our brain control every action we take? And how does DNA make us who we are?

This fact-packed look at the human body is an entertaining nonfiction read that’s filled with superb photos and 3D illustrations.

  • The muscle and skeletal system, the digestive system, the nervous system, and circulatory system are all comprehensively explained.
  • The book includes sections on the mouth and caring for our teeth, eating a healthy diet, exercising, and the importance of sleep for our bodies.
  • The effects and dangers of smoking, drinking alcohol, and taking illegal drugs are sensitively handled in an appropriate way for the target audience.
  • And there is a fascinating section that explores the different stages of the human life cycle.

This book will quickly become an essential resource for students and their teachers when studying the human body.
