This is an absolutely wonderful encyclopedia for older children. It is beautifully laid out with extremely engaging illustrations... I can see this book being a tremendous resource for my daughter over the coming years and one that we use on a regular basis (Parent with child age 8 Toppsta)
An excellent educational book (Parent with child age 7 Toppsta)
I shall be taking this book along with me to school to use... as I think it will be really helpful during biology classes. The human body is amazing. Always so many things to learn. Even my mum has enjoyed reading this book with me too (Child age 11 Toppsta)
A spectacularly visual feast for the eyes and the mind! What an extraordinary book and probably the best book on the human body I have ever read (Parent with child age 9 Toppsta)
