Nature Anatomy: The Curious Parts and Pieces of the Natural World

Nature Anatomy: The Curious Parts and Pieces of the Natural World invites readers to explore the wonders of the natural world through a blend of art, science, and hands-on discovery. Acclaimed illustrator Julia Rothman transforms complex natural phenomena into engaging, visually rich explanations—whether it’s the intricate anatomy of a jellyfish, the fiery depths of a volcano, or the science behind a sunset. Her whimsical yet accurate illustrations make learning feel like an adventure, while interactive activities encourage kids (and curious adults!) to observe and connect with the environment around them.

Perfect for middle grade and up (ages 9+), this book strikes a balance between education and creativity, making it a great resource for classrooms, homeschoolers, or casual exploration. The paperback format is durable and portable, ideal for flipping through at home or taking on outdoor adventures.

The second book of Rothman’s beloved Anatomy series, Nature Anatomy pairs well with its companions—Ocean Anatomy, Food Anatomy, Wildlife Anatomy, and Farm Anatomy—for a full-spectrum dive into the world’s inner workings. Whether used as a reference, a coffee table book, or a springboard for experiments, it’s a celebration of curiosity and the hidden details that make nature extraordinary.
