Dermatology for Kids (Medical School for Kids)

I bought this book for my girlfriend who is a dermatologist and she loved it! Full stamp of approval! The material is simple yet educational, making it a perfect gift for children and even adults who would like to learn more about skin. Medical personnel will enjoy the book as well, it is the perfect decoration for any office!

One of the coolest books I’ve read to my 3-year-old son. My husband and I are both physicians and read to my son every night. We’ve never seen anything like this before! I think the authors did a great job of picking important and kid-friendly concepts in dermatology to teach about. I love the last few pages that emphasize sun safety. Kids who read this will be way ahead of the curve — I never learned about ABCDEs of melanoma until med school!

As someone who’s not in the medical field, I actually learned a ton of new information from this book. Now I have a sense of what features doctors look at to tell the difference between a normal mole and a melanoma! I also really liked that there was a glossary (including how to pronounce new vocab) and even review questions/answers at the end. This isn’t like most other children’s books. This is real medical content… written as a picture book for kids!

This book explains tough medical concepts in a way that it is easy to understand. I was also very impressed by the quality of the illustrations. I've started reading the book to my nephew , and he's begun to learn words such as "Vitamin D" and "dermis". I hope these books will spark interest in science for him as he gets older. I will be buying more books form this brand.

This book covers what skin is made of nicely so if you're just looking to teach your kid about their body it's good, but unfortunately they don't go over different kinds of birth marks or conditions. The only thing they talk about in that area is moles and how to tell if they're cancerous. They spend way too many pages on this. I would have liked to see a quick run down of some common birth marks and maybe things like eczema. Hopefully they come out with Dermatology 2.

Highly recommend!! As a pediatrician it’s so exciting to get to share my love for medicine with my own kids in an easy, beautiful way. These books are what I was always looking for. So glad they made them!

This book is perfect for my niece and nephew! It's very educational yet simple enough for kids to understand. The illustrations are nicely done and help kids visualize what is being explained, for example, the different layers of the skin and what they do. Excellent book!

Highly recommend this book! Excellent for engaging young kids early in science, diversity, and medicine. My nephew was fascinated by the illustrations bursting with color and the peculiar skin diagnoses showcased. I hope the authors consider making more of this series.
