Welcome to the weirdest museum you'll ever explore - the one inside your body!
Did you know your amazing, incredible body is a living, breathing museum of evolution? Look closely and you'll find bits and pieces that were useful way back when our lives were very different from what they are today.
In The Museum of Useless Body Parts, tour guides Wisdom Tooth and Disappearing Kidney lead readers through a wacky museum dedicated to monkey muscles, tail stumps, hiccups, exploding organs, scurvy, and more - all vestigial leftovers hanging around in our bodies with stories to tell about our past. By the time we make it to the gift shop, we'll understand that evolution is messy and imperfect and ongoing. Our bodies are constantly changing along with the conditions in our environment, and there's so much that is still unknown, just waiting to be discovered.
Engaging, hilarious, and a visual treat, this is a museum you'll want to visit again and again.
