What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Your body is busy, busy, busy! Learn how it works in this funny-but-informative book. I want an apple. Smart brain, help me find one. Sniffy nose, smell the apple. Bright eyes, help me see it. Legs, feet, arms, teeth, tongue, tummy . . . and long intestine too . . . all snap into action when a child decides she wants an apple. A clever and humorous introduction to body parts and their function. David Harrison is a beloved, award-winning author. The David Harrison Elementary School in Springfield, Missouri was named in his honor. The illustrator, David Catrow, is known for his humor and hyperbole. Honors include a New York Times Best Illustrated Award.
