Publisher Description: Debut picture book author Blair Thornburgh and award-winning illustrator Scott Campbell put their heads together to celebrate one of the most important bones in your body: the skull You probably don't think much about skulls. So what's the big deal about them? Well, every head of every person you've ever seen has a skull inside. And that includes YOU This smart, skull-positive story cheerfully dispels any fears kids might have about their skeletons, flipping our view of skulls from a spooky symbol to a fascinating, cool, and crucial part of our bodies. |
