Getting Personal |
|
I love this series. And more importantly, my 6 year old does, too. This Magic School Bus adventure is another hit. The Frizz and her school kids miss a few organ systems in their tour of the body, but its a good first visit. I'd love to see a return trip. Among the highlights of this book (and the entire Magic School Bus series) is that it works if you read just the main tale and dialogue, but it gets even richer if you read all the other stuff on the pages, too. |

proud to be curious and intellectual - how wonderfully un American! |
|
This is a great, almost un American book in that kids are told that it's OK, even wonderful and wondrous to be science geeks, be curious. Love the Frizz when she says "take chances, get messy, make mistakes," and encourages her students to explore. In a society that elevates sports and violence for boys, and beauty and cattiness for girls, this series stands out for encouraging gender neutral intellectualism and academic achievement. My geeky 5 year old can't get enough, having finally found fictional characters that reflect her and encourage her. Factual substance-wise, I as a 40 year old have learned tons. |

Magic School Bus inside Human Body |
|
Fun way to introduce our little one to the wonder of the Human Body. Great starter book! |

Not for the squeamish. |
|
My son read this book to me for reading but it can just as easily be read for health or science. He really likes these books while he does not care for the shows much. In this one they take a trip through Ralph's body and learn about the main systems - digestion, circulatory, nervous... Recommended for ages 6-9 years and 3rd grade reading level. |

Very Educational |
|
My daughter has been reading Magic School Bus books in school and we bought this one for her this past Christmas. She probably enjoys this one more than any other so far. It is well written and very educational with great illustrations. If your young reader likes science, then this is definitely a great choice! |
