| book description |
Take a tour through the human body by exploring it as a bustling city – where every bone, muscle, organ and cell has an important job to do. Cities are busy places. There are buildings and parks, streets and cars. It takes a lot of people to keep a city running. Some make new buildings, while others drive buses. There are people who deliver the post, collect the rubbish and make sure there is clean water for everyone to drink. Your body is a little bit like a city – travel around and discover all the amazing things it can do!  On your journey, visit the busy smoothie shop (the stomach) and hold your nose when the bin truck (the bowel) passes with all the stinky waste! Don't forget to take a deep breath in the big parks (the lungs) and pop by the car wash (the kidneys) to help the delivery drivers get clean. Discover what keeps your body safe, what happens to the food we eat and how all the different systems and ‘workers’ in our body talk to each other. With exciting text by Nancy Dickmann and brought to life with Lele Saa's vibrant, character-filled illustrations, The City Inside You transforms science concepts into an imaginative adventure.
