Get guts! October 3, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
The text of the book was perfect. It managed to combine technical words with a serious scientific tone with a certain simplicity and straightforwardness that was comprehensible, but still wonderful to read. I will be the first to admit I learned a great deal about the digestive system and would recommend it to anyone, child or somewhat silly adult like myself.
Initially, the colors and nature of the pictures bothered me somehow--not because of the "gross factor", but because I often had no idea what I was looking at. Sometimes a computer visualization is clearer, so I missed having some of those to help. But the text was so strong, it made up for that.

Fabulous author! I reviewed 10 of his writings for a class project in Children's Literature. He writes about the body in an interesting and informative way and peaks curiosity and leaves you wanting to know more. Seymour Simon is great for readers of all ages.
