Stickmen’s Guide to Your Gurgling Guts

Written by John Farndon, Illustrated by Venitia Dean

I picked this book up because it talked about gurgling guts. (My students love gross books.) I was very happily surprised when I read it. I think this is a very well written, tactful book about how our bodies work. Body functions are described in a way that is easy to for the reader to understand and the illustrations are very well done. Even the grossest of bodily functions are described in a way that will interest any child without grossing adults out too much.
