[An] enjoyably gross look at the human body. Hours of gruesome fun guaranteed.
—— i...it is like listening to a teacher who makes pupils fall about
—— The Sunday TimesKay's Anatomy is totally brilliant - it's ultra child-friendly and chatty, and any young reader will learn a great deal about the body as they chuckle through each chapter.
—— Jacqueline WilsonPerfect for days of home-schooling!
—— South Wales EchoIt's fun and informative and just the sort of book I would've loved as a child. And I loved the True or Poo sections!
—— Malorie BlackmanIf only this funny and informative book had been around when I was too embarrassed to teach my kids about bodily functions
—— David BaddielHilarious and fascinating! I wish Adam had been my biology teacher
—— Konnie HuqPacked with anatomical facts - and very funny - this exciting book is bound to inspire the next generation of medics
—— Sunday ExpressThis is brilliant. I'm not jealous that I didn't write it at all. No, not one little bit.
Much funnier and more informative and more gross than Gray's Anatomy... I highly recommend for anyone
