I Wonder Why My Tummy Rumbles and other questions about my body

Author: Brigid AvisonIllustrator: Various Illustrators

Part of a cheerful question-and-answer series for younger readers, this particular title provides a straightforward introduction to the workings of the human body. Cartoons and cutaway artworks sit alongside suitably pitched text for the Key Stage 1 age group, with extended captions answering such questions as ‘What are germs?’ or ‘Why do I blink?’. Nothing remarkable or outstanding on offer here, but there is nothing to offend either. If it all looks vaguely familiar, this series has in fact been around for nearly ten years, but is reissued here in a more compact format. At £2.99 it represents good value resource material for school and classroom libraries.
