I really liked this book (even the gross parts), as it never stopped teaching me about the human body until the vary last page. I would recommend this book to anyone who’s interested in the series (Operation Ouch) or has watched all the series but still up for more.

It’s really good. Children from 6 can start reading it if you are not too scared! You learn all about the human body.

I rate this book 10/5 !!! I really love Operation Ouch and I love funny books! Did you know that sidestepping burns 78 percent more calories than normal walking! My favourite bit was the mini comics they made in the book!

I enjoyed this book and I learnt a lot of things like a leaches have 32 brains and that heart disease has been found in a 3,000 year-old Egyptian mummies. I also recommend this book too.

I'd recommend this book to my friends to learn about the body. I enjoyed reading and had fun learning about the way the body works. There are lots of fun facts, like: why you cough when food goes down the wrong tube.
