The Busy Body Book

This is an interactive guide to the human body for young children. The paper mechanisms are designed to teach the reader how the body actually works. Included is a moving skeleton, Mr Bony, which is held in a perforated pouch inside the book. There are pull and push mechanisms which show, for example, how the pupil gets larger and smaller, and how muscles work. Also featured is a scratch and sniff panel, and different textures for children to feel. Simple experiments such as testing your sense of taste are presented through characters and their pets.
