Amanda Haley.
Combining playful narration and factual information, these volumes introduce readers to the details of their bones and senses. The formats are not identical: Bones catalogs the skeleton and the connections therein and includes X-ray images; Pickle features rhyming poems and questions for the reader as well as more variation in layout. In both, Haley's loose-lined watercolors balance the text and add humor. Review covers these titles: You Can't See Your Bones with Binoculars! and You Can't Taste a Pickle with Your Ear!.
