Colorful graphics, engaging text, and fun, close-up photographs invite young readers to become familiar with their nervous system.

Kid-oriented examples of the nervous system at work are given, such as reflexes and tasting foods. Simple diagrams highlight major parts of the nervous system. The structures of the brain, spinal cord, nerves, and neurons are described as messages move back and forth through them.
