While I'm on the subject of books, let me recommend one to read
with your kids (net.{kids,books} folks can skip this one if you're
not a Christian).  It's called "My Magnificent Machine", by William
L Coleman.  (Fifty-two unusual devotions for families with small
children), Bethany House Publishers.

It's about the human body.  Each section (about 2 pages each) deals
with a different aspect of human physiology like the eyes, liver,
bones, skull, nose, acne (is that physiology?), muscles, heart, hand,
foot, spine, etc., etc., you get the idea.  If you want a good book
for teaching your kids about the way the body works, try this one.
After each section there are some (usually three) questions which
can be asked.  My wife and I read with our daughter each night before
she goes to sleep.  Whoever reads the book then asks the question,
and the other people take turns answering them.  Good for making sure
that there was comprehension about what was read.
