Weird but True Human Body Facts

24 pp. | Enslow/Elementary | October, 2011 | Library ISBN 978-0-7660-3865-3 $21.26
(4) K-3 Weird but True Science series. This book highlights unusual facts about the human body. Beginning with a brief "Words to Know" glossary, the volume then offers eight double-page spreads about specific weirdnesses (e.g., the speed of a sneeze; the high percentage of bones in feet and hands). Excellent color photos and accessible but limited text are not well served by the constant refrain, "It's weird, but it's true!" Reading list, websites. Ind.
