The writing is clear, but overly simplistic and not very informative; one example compares the hip joint to a \"joystick on a computer.\" Most pages have half-page color drawings, mostly of children involved in a variety of activities rather than graphic illustrations of the text. Two of the four technical illustrations, one of the skeleton and one of a cross section of a bone, are reprinted in the glossary section. These are labeled with common terms such as \"toe bones\" and \"lower arm bones\" or \"hard bone on the outside\" and \"softer, lighter bone.\" Suitable only for the very youngest readers as an introduction to the topic; those looking for factual information would be better served by Kathleen Elgin's The Human Body: the Skeleton (1971) and The Human Body: the Muscles (1973, both Watts; o.p.).
