K-Gr 3—Filled with details, these lift-the-flap titles cover familiar territory: the human body and vehicles. These slightly oversize board books feature much more information written at a higher level than most offerings in this format ("Trolleys are powered by electricity from overhead wires all along the route.").
My Amazing Body lets readers know that though we are all different, ultimately we have many similarities. The book devotes a spread to various questions ("Where Did I Come From?"; "Where Does My Food Go?").
On the Move uses a similar presentation, with a different set of vehicles ("Trains and Trolleys," "Trucks and Vans") for each spread. The cartoonish illustrations are detailed and for the most part realistic, though a bit dull. The design of Move is a little less busy than that of Body and the labeling more useful. The material here is fairly straightforward ("Your two eyes let you see what is happening around you.") and should interest readers, particularly
On the Move.
