You Have A Tube

You Have a Tube empowers kids by teaching them about their bodies.  The concept of a tube will inform and entertain even a young child, while the vocabulary of subsequent pages, each with increasing complexity, will continue to stimulate older kids as well.  

Children love to learn and want desperately to understand how our world works. In fact, fiction may be a more difficult concept for young children to understand than non-fiction. Why bombard them with fantasy and make-believe while they are just learning about the magic of how trees grow or where paper comes from or what makes the waves at the beach.

Everything about our world is new and deserves an explanation. 

What could be more important than learning how our bodies work and the proper terminology  to assist children throughout their lives in conversation and in effective communication with their doctor(s).

I wrote You Have a Tube, because I figured kids needed a next step after reading Everyone Poops by Taro Gomi.  They needed a book with more information-a basic anatomy and physiology reference book for elementary students that belongs in every classroom and in every home bookshelf.  

You Have a Tube is a fun book with colorful engaging pictures that are not terrifying to look at. My goal is to make it the first in a series of You Have a Body books.
