A humorous, hands-on tour of how the human body works

Organized as an illustrated exploration of the body from toes and tongue to brain and lungs, this children’s science book uses questions, jokes, photos, quizzes, and “Wow-To” experiments to introduce anatomy and physiology. Its subject matter includes everyday bodily functions—breathing, digestion, urination, and more—alongside curiosities such as belly buttons and nose growth. The format places factual explanations beside interactive elements, making the body’s systems approachable through observation, activities, and playful prompts.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Kids interested in anatomy, body systems, and everyday science questions
  • Fans of quiz- and experiment-filled nonfiction
  • Listeners of the Wow in the World podcast
