OUTSIDE AND INSIDE YOU by Sandra Markle

OUTSIDE AND INSIDE YOU

by Sandra Markle & photographed by Susan Kuklin

Pub Date: April 30th, 1991
ISBN: 0-02-762311-4

Brilliantly colored photos and a lively text explore the human body from the outside in: muscles, bones, inner organs, eyes, ears, and much more. ``Your skin is like a stretchy bodysuit just your size,'' and ``Your blood is a kind of cell soup...''—just enough information is presented to pique the curiosity. The author concludes, ``There's a great body inside this book—yours! Take good care of it.'' Many of the photos are color-enhanced and enlarged; body parts have never looked so good, though it would have been helpful if degrees of magnification had been included. A beautiful book with special pizzazz. Glossary; index. (Nonfiction. 6-10)
