Learn about the human body from an innovative perspective so that little ones become aware of it. Why is it an instrument that farts? And this waste factory? Have you ever wondered why we can tell the time without looking at a clock? We are a biological machine that, when it short-circuits, turns reality into gibberish… Are we really that fragile? Do you know how many senses we actually have?

This book explains, with fascinating facts and curiosities, aspects of our bodies that seem mundane to us. Almost all of them are governed by complex processes that are rarely explained to our little sapiens in the way they truly want to know: no blackboards, no inexplicable diagrams, no plastic organs! We want to know how many types of poop we produce or why we blush when someone we like approaches us!

Besides explaining many of the fascinating facts that make our bodies so fun and wonderful, the true star of this book is our brain: The Little Sapiens' Book on the Body and Brain is one of the few books that address this topic. And it does so from a perspective firmly rooted in current events and new discoveries. Children will learn about the brain as an extraordinary machine full of subtleties. It talks about emotions, gender, neurodiversity, the senses (which are not what they seem), and immerses curious minds in a world of organic, physiological, intellectual, and emotional self-knowledge. Because our body is more than just a sack full of organs.

With its engaging and fun language and charming illustrations, this educational book will delight children. At the same time, it will stimulate their thirst for knowledge about the human body and ensure they find all the answers they need.
