Product Description
"As with other books in this series of Japanese imports the topic has plenty of kid appeal and the very grossness of the presentation just adds to the allure." - Booklist

 Mismatched Text and Illustrations May 13, 2009
Shanna A. Gonzalez (Gaithersburg, MD)

Another of the My Body Science series, this one is also a disappointment. This book describes the composition and function of a scab, accompanied by simply drawn illustrations of children commenting on and showing off their scabs. The descriptive text doesn't really match the illustrations, which are rather abstractly drawn. For the level of description, I would expect near-photographic detail for accuracy of understanding. The entertainment value of the gross factor is the only thing going for this book, and the main text will bore the crowd that gets excited about that.
 My Kids Love It! March 12, 2009
Holly Norris (San Antonio)
I have a 6yr girl and 3yr boy and they both get a kick out of it, especially my 6yr who loves to read it over and over. Of course my boy loves to see the pictures of blood and it was quite informative as well. We have tons of books, but the `funny' ones like this and `The Holes in Your Nose', `The Gas we Pass' and the `Poop' books are the ones they always pick to read most often. I hope your kids enjoy it as well! God bless you!
I love these books. They are great for kids and a laugh for adults! March 4, 2009

These are fun books that are great for a coffee table or bathroom. The illustrations are the best and I can always find something to laugh at.

Considering this is part of the "My Body Science" series that also brings us "The Gas We Pass" and "Everyone Poops," you can expect more of the same gross-out humor and scatalogical references. ("Maybe a scab is...the poop of a sore!")
But if you can get past the poop talk, this book does a great job of giving a scientific insight into a topic that naturally fascinates kids.
Love it! July 18, 2008

My kid is only 3, and she loves this book. When she gets a "boo-boo," she explains to me what's happening during the scabbing process. Wonderful!
