From tongue to toe

'From Tongue to Toe' is a fascinating book of facts packed with trivia and funny illustrations by the Silver Griffel & Penseel duo Geert-Jan Roebers and Wendy Panders. With this informative children's book for readers aged 9 and up, you will get to know your body and the world better. Do you want to discover the world? Great idea! But where should you start? That is simple: with yourself. With your own body. You can't get any closer. And you don't have to search, because you always have your body with you. Your body is incredibly interesting. Every body part has its own stories, and those are in this book. You read where the body part is located. What it looks like. How it works. That sort of thing. So, a book about the human body? Yes and no. This book actually does something that is forbidden in other informative books: it gets sidetracked. Usually just one step, but that is enough to find yourself in another world. In the animal world, for example. Or in the world of sports, technology, or language. Or in another time, because this book is also about history. And even about the universe. But it always starts with yourself. 'Van tong tot teen' is the latest book by the creators of the double-award-winning non-fiction book 'Paddenstoel & co'. Geert-Jan Roebers is a biologist and author of many children's books about nature, such as 'Soortenschat' and 'Briljante planten'. He writes in a playful and humorous way, making it easy to remember the most interesting discoveries and information, and ensuring you enjoy reading. The book is illustrated by Wendy Panders, in her recognizable clear style with a healthy dose of humor. The design was also handled by Wendy Panders, creating a strong unified whole between text and image.
