Have you ever considered your body as some kind of awesome machine? You’ll be surprised by how many machine-like terms can be associated with the human body functions. Examples would be body framework and motors or automatic air inlet/exhaust system. Has that perked up your curiosity? The Body Owner’s Handbook (a Horrible Science book) by Nick Arnold looks at the human body in an interesting light. It has funny illustrations and I found it very interesting how the human body functions were turned into some kind of high technology machine. Do check it out at the children’s non fiction area with the call number J612 ARN. Happy reading!
