With your amazing x-ray magnifying glass, you'll be able to peer beneath the surface and examine muscles, nerves, organs, and bones. On each spread, read all about different aspects of the human body, from the hair on your head to the tips of your toes, skin cells to skeletons, and so much more.

Discover how each bit of you has a job to do and how they work together to get it done. Then, get the inside story on each organ, bone, and muscle using your special x-ray magnifying glass (included).

With real scientific detail and a fun novelty twist, Magic Magnifying Glass: My Amazing Body is the perfect introduction to anatomy for the budding biologist. This hands-on interactive exploration book is sure to delight any curious 6-8 year-old, boys and girls alike.
