This is a fun and interactive coloring/activity book that introduces young readers to the human body. From bones, to organs, to blood vessels, to muscles, to the nervous system, this workbook covers a substantial amount of material that will keep readers interested in learning more and prepare them for in-depth work in later grade levels. There is repetition of both words, pictures, and facts throughout the workbook in order to help young readers remember what they learn. They are also given the chance to color both the body and the owl teacher. I hope to see the owl take on more of an individualistic persona in other workbooks to create a lasting impact with readers. By including a few quirks or signature expressions, the owl can become a prominent character that children will instantly associate with learning different subjects.
The body that is built belongs to the reader, and I especially appreciated how they are given the chance to name and color the body and come up with their own adventures. This not only solidifies what readers have learned about human anatomy, but it also provides a space for creativity and personal expression.
The workbook includes great illustrations. The body that the readers are building is detailed enough to convey the necessary information without overwhelming them with complicated diagrams. I’d definitely recommend this activity book to young readers and encourage parents to check out the other activity books published in the series.
