Hello children, it’s time to say your A, B, C so let’s start from

A until we get to Z! Get in here and explore with me as I guide you through my picture dictionary on the human body

parts and organs!

Do you know there are so many interesting parts inside and outside of our bodies? The outer parts can be seen just by looking at someone but the inner parts cannot be seen so easily. These hidden parts are internal. A surgeon operating on a person’s body can see these parts. Some of these internal parts are so small that they can only be seen clearly under a microscope.

This picture dictionary shows some of these amazing body parts and organs. Let’s take an alphabetical tour of our bodies as we look at both the outer and the inner body!

Can you think of a body part for every letter in the alphabet?

Nose & Nostrils

‘N’ is for nose with its two nostrils! The human nose is the most bulging part of the face. It bears the two openings known as nostrils. The glands produce sebum in a higher concentration than on other parts of the body.

Next time you smell that apple pie baking in the oven, you’ll agree that the nose always knows!

Q

Quadratus lumbros

‘Q’ is for quadratus lumbros, a strangesounding word! I definitely expected that quizzical look the instant the sound is heard!

This is the quadratus lumbros - a muscle found in the lower back behind the kidneys, the pancreas and the horizontal partof the duodenum. It is also called the QL muscle. Sounding such difficult word can sometimes be a hassle!
