Synopsis

This lively introduction explores how the body works in everyday life, from senses and feelings to exercise, food, sleep and toothcare. Clear illustrations help bring each topic into focus, keeping the information accessible and engaging.

It also acknowledges that bodies vary in shape and appearance, explaining differences such as skin colour, disability, hair type and age. As children grow, the book looks at change over time and includes chapters on communication, getting dressed, becoming unwell and recovering, alongside practical body vocabulary and the message that “your body is your own”. Suitable for young children.
