Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

How many different types of cells are there? What are reflexes? Why do your ears help you to balance? What are rods and cones? Take a journey through the incredible human body, and collect some bite-size facts about senses, cells, and DNA along the way. Fast Facts is a new series of high-interest, lower reading ability books aimed at fact-hungry children who enjoy information books but may be less confident readers or have difficulty with the usual quantity and level of text aimed at their age group.

Includes index.
