It Takes Guts: How Your Body Turns Food Into Fuel (and Poop)

We are semi-new to homeschooling and have been looking for secular resources that were fun and engaging while also being highly effective learning tools. My 8 year old daughter loves this book and so do I! I hope the author (at some point) comes out with a matching activity book. Until then we will create our own. This book is fun whether used for school or if your child just has a general fascination about the body and how it works. Buy this book!

I bought this thinking it was more geared toward children, but I must have missed the description! I was pleasantly surprised to find that it’s much more, thorough, educating, and beautifully made. I purchased for my (very bright) 4 year old who was struggling with this idea, but even though it wasn’t what I was expecting, he truly loved it!
