Evaluative Criteria: Organization

This book uses organization. The way the information is setup is great. It starts off by explaining gender, sex, and life styles. It then goes on to explain the body parts. Then the changes the body goes through as well as body exploration. Families comes next and how to care for them. We end with staying healthy. The manner in which this book goes from simple to complex is beautifully done.
