The diagrams are fantastic. The text to go with each diagram is very detailed and may put some off – particularly for those who might think about buying the book for use in a school with children younger than 10 – 11 years old. Children who have reading skills above their aged related levels for 10 – 11 year olds may get a lot out of the book. I bought the book as revision material for a Year 6 (aged 10 – 11) class that I was teaching to help them revise for the English National Curriculum 2014 requirement of being able to “identify and name the main parts of the human circulatory system, and describe the functions of the heart, blood vessels and blood”.

Very interesting parts to read as I colour, good quality colouring book, it does tell you what colours it likes you to use for each part, so have lots of different colours to hand

I made the mistake of ordering it for my grandson, aged 8.Its a rather odd book. One normally associates colouring books with children but the level of complexity is to an older level and the pics are too small…leaving me wondering who the target audience is. Why on earth would an older person want to colour in representations of human anatomy? Still, it raised a smile on Xmas Day as everyone looked at the bizarre present he had! Incidently,I have taught Nursing for 30 years and it is WAY below the level for even a first year Nursing Student. Both Nursing and Medicine are Degree courses. If anyone going into Medicine or Nursing has difficulty retaining knowledge of such basic anatomy without recourse to a colouring book to learn where things are then I just don’t think its the career for them! We have moved on a bit in our expectations!

Great for revision, I’ve found it really helpful. Makes a change from just reading a textbook. If you are a visual learner it helps it sink in. the only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is bcos the pages are thin so coloured pens bleed through to the other side and mean you can’t colour that page which was disappointing. For double sided colouring book It really should have thicker pages!

I am a science student and to know anatomy is a great thing. Instead of wasting time doing nothing, I thought of colouring useful things and stumbled upon this. Colouring in parts of human anatomy helps you learn as well as give you pleasure when not in mood to read text. It is also good for children I would say as this is is the basic anatomy with some great detail but not so much so as you would expect a medical student to know. So even if you are beginning to take your steps in medicine or you have children whom you want to be ahead of things and want to nurture their creativity and knowledge, then this book is for you! An excellent purchase, highly recommended!

It’s entertaining and informative but the ink does seem show slightly on the next page.

I ordered this book for myself before going on a two week medical course, it arrived very quickly and in good protective packaging. The pages are wide and varied, it covers the Skeletal system, muscular system and an intro into the Endocrine System. The paper is easy to mark with a colouring pencil (I had bought a similar book from another seller and its pages were kinda glossy and difficult to colour). I found it easy to use, everything is numbered and it made easier for me to learn. I would recommend this to anyone starting out in A&P, maybe couple this with a full on Anatomy book just as a reference with a little more detail. The only area I found lacking was the coverage of veins and arteries. Overall a good buy.

Wouldn’t be without it. After colouring in I can use as a tool to learn for anatomy exam and when going through client consultations! Very well laid out. Easy on the eye. Absolutely love it, thank you!
