Description

'Accessible and fun ... truly a kind of genius!' Bill Bryson
----
Everything you thought you knew about your senses is wrong!

How many senses do you have? I bet you said five. But you'd be wrong. You have THIRTY-TWO!

This SENSE-ational human body book explores the thirty-two amazingly awesome, broccoli-hating, wee-sniffing senses that help you figure out the world around you. They tell you ...

How some people can SMELL sickness,
When you need to do a POO,
And why words CAN actually hurt you!

With bold and fun illustrations by John Devolle, this is the perfect book for kids that are curious about our bodies and how they work.

'I don't know anyone who can take complex scientific concepts and make them more accessible, stimulating and fun than Emma Young. It is truly a kind of genius. And the illustrations are wonderful, too.'

Bill Bryson
I learned SO MUCH from Emma Young and John Devolle's brilliantly witty and stylish book. Their tour of the human body is totally unique and a feast for all 32 senses!

Isabel Thomas, science writer and children's author
This is an engaging and informative book for all children and serves as a reminder that learning can be – gasp! – fun.
