Look inside your Brain (Poke & Look Learning)

This inviting "Poke and Look Learning Book" teaches your child--and maybe even you--the basics of how the brain works. The sturdy board book's cover shows a young girl with a large die-cut hole in her head (a more cheerful than grotesque effect) that reveals a cross-section of her brain, divided into sections such as balance, memory, and exercise that discuss how the brain relates to each function. Look inside Your Brain attempts to make even the most detailed information about the brain seem fun; next to a picture of a neuron, for example, is an illustrated cat saying, "How complicated!" The lively, colorful, cartoonish artwork is sure to engage the inquiring minds on your gift list, even if they can't yet pronounce "cerebral cortex." Ages 5 and up.
