It's a picture book and the rhymes are amusing and simple enough for young children to understand, but the factoids tell things older kids and even adults will find fascinating. (Confession: I'm a grown up and I discovered a lot of information in this book I hadn't known before.)
I can see parents and teachers reading the rhymes out loud to children, middle graders reading it themselves, and older kids - maybe even some in High School - using the book for research to use in term papers.
Eugene Ruble's illustrations are educational, too.

Thanks for sharing this on your blog, Janet, and for the kind words about the book. Here's to the future doctors among the readers. The older I get, the more I'll need them....
You're welcome, Bill. All the books you've written about the human body are good ones and I hope you stay young enough to keep writing for a long time.
