Booklist (starred review)
"This Norwegian import is icky and unsettling even while being a guffaw-inducing exploration of the human body, complete with comically exaggerated anatomical drawings of what lurks beneath our skin. Beyond the guaranteed giggles, Kuhn adds a subtle teaching moment: by presenting Samira with dark skin and her best friend with lighter skin, and then showing both of their skeletons (and later, somewhat horrifyingly, muscles), Kuhn highlights how much we are the same underneath." Publishers Weekly
"Tenderhearted kids may be freaked out by the book's moderately disturbing images, but scientifically curious ones (and those with a mischievous streak) should appreciate Kuhn's directness."
