Children love to ask questions about their bodies that adults struggle to answer, about life, death and everything in between. This is the book to give those curious children!
Not just a tour of the body, its organs, and how they work, this book takes the time to answer questions kids didn't know they were allowed to ask. That means fun questions, such as 'What's itching for?' or 'What will humans look like a million year from now?', and also serious questions, such as 'Can we slow down ageing?' or 'Can we cure allergies?'
Clear diagrams and fun cartoons guide readers through complex answers about how genes work, how brains learn, how bodies build themselves, and all sorts of fascinating topics. Carefully selected photos show what cells and tissue and other body parts really look like - for kids brave enough to look.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Rachel Firth (Author)
Rachel spent 11 years studying and teaching philosophy at the universities of London and Oxford before joining Usborne. Since then she has written books on subjects ranging from knights, to food, to philosophy, as well as retelling folk stories, and writing children's versions of numerous novels.
Ashe de Sousa (Author)
Ashe wasn't born; she grew on a bush. She lived in Paris and Lyon for a bit, before coming back to London to finish her studies at King's College - writing about music, film and politics in the meantime.
She's happiest in icy waters, on her bicycle and sleeping outside. She moonlights as a climber.
At Usborne, Ashe writes books about the human body and stories of the Moon.
