Body science
James Cracknell
- Reading
- Browse the headings or illustrations first, then choose one topic to explore together. Pause to unpack unfamiliar ideas and invite your child to link them to another body-science topic in the book.
- Themes
- Body science through several disciplines: The book presents the human body as a subject for exploring several branches of science, including the chemistry and physics involved in how it works. The book uses graphics and visual metaphors to explain body science.
- The body under force: The book includes the energy powering muscles and forces that test the body. These subjects are presented as part of a science-focused exploration of how the body works.
- Worth knowing
- Genetics, forensics and forces that test the body are among the topics. If your child is particularly sensitive to body-related science, you could preview those sections together.
