Basher Science: Human Body

Laughing our way through the human body! This is a fantastic book! Kids and adults alike enjoy the humor as they read through the information in this book. This book is a great introduction to anatomy and inspires kids to "dig deeper".

My son is a voracious reader. We got him 7 of the Basher Science books for his 8th birthday in late March. He had finished them all by the end of April and has picked them back up again to reread. (2nd grade, reading at a U-level) He won't touch a fiction book unless forced, but if it is about science or technology he can't put it down. Just enough pictures to keep him from feeling intimidated by the text, perfect silliness level to keep him engaged, and more real science facts than he could absorb the first time through.

This entire series is absolutely amazing! I have a three and five year old who love looking through the pictures on their own. With the five year old, I read some of the actual text and with the three year old I just talk about the main ideas. I would say that the independent reading level is really geared for a 4th-8th grade level. This is a great way to introduce younger kids to higher level concepts in a fun and entertaining way. The illustrations are too cute, each definition is limited to one page and written in a personified and humorous voice. I am currently trying to collect every single book in this series.

This was a very informative non-fiction book. It goes into more detail on body parts then most books for this age group and in a fun and informative way. My child reads at about a 3rd grade level and he does fine with these, I have to help him with the science words as expected, but it keeps his interest.

This is an approachable introduction for kids about biology.

They have a great simplified format to keep my kids interested. They have sparked lots of great conversations and are good quality books! Highly recommend!

I came across one of the books in this series in the gift shop at the Franklin Museum and thought it would be great for my son who just started college. He has some tough classes that require a lot of memorization and these books are perfect for that... takes tough topics and breaks them down into terms easier to understand. They have great visuals too. Ended up buying 3 of them "The Period Table", "Chemistry" and "The Human Body". His study partner loved them and I bought a set for her too. Great books!

Great value.

Divertido con unas explicaciones reales perfectas

My 8 year old son has a number of the books in this series now and he absolutley loves them. He dips in and out when the mood takes him or a topic is discussed at school. Very well written for this age group as the descriptions seem to stick in their heads.

There are many organ-related words such as pancreas and spleen that I had heard of. However, I did not know what they do. This is a very good, rudimentary book related to human body for those like me.

Fabulous. Written in a fun way, this is a great 'educative summary'. Be prepared though that this is more of a fun, breezy summary to recollect key concepts and presupposes that the detailed knowledge has been gained from 'boring texts'. Wonderfully written and lovely cartoons.
