How It Works and How to Look After It
Written by Dr. Roopa Farooki, Illustrated by Viola Wang
This book will be a nice addition to our nonfiction collection. I thought the brain function was explained in a clear, easy-to-understand way. It’s written at a level that kids will easily understand, but I didn’t think the information was “dummied” down. The illustrations were good and added to the understanding of the information.
