Our Anatomy

Our hands help us interact with the world. For babies, hands are used to understand new parts of the world they have never seen before. The older we get, the more we use our hands. Hands are used to communicate, interpret, and understand the world around us. Through this book's age-appropriate language and content, readers discover the different parts of their hands and how they work together to do everything they like to do, such as hold a pencil, give a high five, and fingerpaint!

The human head is made of a lot of different parts, each with an important job to do! The skull protects the brain and gives the head shape.

With photographs that pair closely with approachable text, this book is a great addition to lessons about basic anatomy.

There are 206 bones found in the human body, all with an important job to do. Bones give our bodies support, they protect our internal organs, and they even help us move around.

In this book, readers travel around this important system through full-color photographs and diagrams, learning about what keeps them standing, sitting, and playing upright!
