The human body can be astonishing. This book is filled
with energy-packed photographs of kids running, jumping,
riding bikes, and using all five senses. The photos
are overlaid with depictions of the nervous, skeletal,
muscular, respiratory, and circulatory systems and
major organs to show the amazing ways in which active
bodies function. The five senses and the major organs
are all covered. Glossary, notes on the systems and
senses, and an index are included.

About the Author:
From School Library Journal:
Shelley Rotner brings a depth of experience and knowledge to her books with a diverse background as an elementary school teacher, museum educational specialist and UNICEF photographer. She is an award winning author and photo-illustrator of over twenty books. She lives in Northampton, Massachusetts.
K-Gr 1-Ambitious to fault, this title tries to cover too much, which results in a little bit of information about a lot of things. The boy riding a bike on the cover and the title seem to indicate that it will be a book about movement, but it is really a brief overview of the entire human body. The nervous, skeletal, muscular, respiratory, circulatory and digestive systems; the five senses; skin, and hair are all touched on. The full-color photographs are lovely; they feature racially diverse children, and some of the photographs include an illustration of the body system superimposed on the child. For example, the boy eating a piece of watermelon has an illustration of his digestive tract over his torso. Overall, though, there is so much going on that too much gets glossed over.-Heather Acerro, Rochester Public Library, MNα(c) Copyright 2011.
