Your skeleton helps you leap, somersault, and touch your toes—without it, you would be as floppy as a beanbag! There are over 200 bones living and growing inside you that make up your skeleton. There are also ligaments and joints that hold your bones together, and cartilage in your bendable parts like your ears and your nose.

Read and find out all about what a skeleton can do! Now rebranded with a new cover look, this book features content-rich vocabulary, fascinating side bars and diagrams, and beautifully detailed illustrations by veteran illustrator True Kelley. The classic text by Philip Balestrino and the illustrations were vetted for accuracy by an expert in the field.


骨骼可以讓你跳躍、翻跟斗、摸到腳趾。沒有它，你會像豆袋一樣軟趴趴！你的骨骼是由身體裡超過 200 塊骨頭所構成。韌帶和關節把骨頭固定在一起，而軟骨所構成的部位，像是耳朵和鼻子則能夠彎曲。

一面閱讀一面找出所有骨骼能讓你做的事！本書換上新封面，內含豐富的詞彙，有趣的資訊補充和示意圖。精美的插圖由經驗豐富的插畫師真True Kelley所繪製。Philip Balestrino的經典文本和書中插圖已由該領域專家審查其準確性。
