The Brain: All about Our Nervous System and More! (Smithsonian-science)

good illustrated book. recommended for kids.

brain is not discussed systematically. still okay

Not upto the mark,as i thought

Toolesspages

It’s not what I expected it to be. Too basic.

Its a kids book, but not a fairy tale. I think that with this Smithsonian series there will be technical terms a child, and even unfamiliar adults, will be stopped by. At the same time, with repeated exposure to such terms, I feel the child can get it. My daughter has this set and when I bought it we understood there would be a new learning curve for her, this is exactly why we bought it. Introducing topics in neuroscience will challenge most readers without a background within, especially a child developing litaracy skills - but I think its worth the effort. To support this goal I felt the images were excellent and make revisiting the pages easy.If you are keen on fostering a sense of curiosity and a scientific mind within a child, the decision is a no-brainer, buy them. And for keen adults - fun to look at as we attempt to help our children grow.

These are very informational and perfect for kids. My 9 year old absolutely loves them! Some of the medical books (heart, bones, brain) are a bit out of reach for my 4 year old and 6 year old, but they still listen and love looking at the pictures. Great, great, great books!

This book surpassed all of my concerns. It is excellent for the class I am going to teach this fall.

My almost 7 year old grandson loved this book and spent hours pouring over the pictures. The words were a little advanced by he reads on about a 4th grade level so he did well with them.
