SynopsisKids, meet your body and learn how it works: My Silly Body unfolds into a life-size, interactive, die-cut figure that teaches the basics of the human body. P. Hanson offers a completely fresh, hands-on approach to engage children in just what it is that so fascinates them about their bodies--from the organs to the bones to the funny noises they make after eating too many beans. The Body. It's a full-size, full-color illustrated cardboard cut-out with lift-and-learn flaps on one side that reveal the organs, bloodstream, nerves, and muscles. Here are the guts--heart, lungs, stomach, intestines--with captions that describe what each does. Here is the brain--lift the flap over the forehead and discover the master organ that controls everything from heartbeats (72 a minute) to learning ABCs. Flip the figure over, and it's like looking at a perfect X ray--a complete 4-year-old skeleton, from skull to the small bones in the toes and fingers. The Book. Accompanying the body cut-out is a 64-page illustrated owner's manual. Learn the mystery of the disappearing bones (babies are born with 300 bones, but have only 206 when they're fully grown). And take a fascinating trip though the digestive system and find out why we really are what we eat.
