How Will I Grow? by Mick Manning
HOW WILL I GROW? is a lively introduction to the way our bodies change from a baby to fully grown adult. Using a question and answer format, it explores the many different aspects of growth, from how our bones grow longer and what they need to be stronger, to the fact that everyone grows at different times and different rates. It also sensitively introduces the changes that come about in adolescence, both physical and emotional. Taking up where HOW DID I BEGIN? left off, this book is the perfect way to answer all those 'difficult' questions children ask. It is the third title in a loosely-related series by award-winners Mick Manning and Brita Granstrom, which takes an informative but friendly look at some concerns of young children that relate to their immediate world and which they need to understand as part of 'growing up'. In doing so, they also provide an indispensible resource for any parent or teacher who is helping children understand these issues.
Mick Manning was head of illustration at Glasgow School of Art. He has written and illustrated a number of children's books.

Mick and Brita won the silver Smarties award for THE WORLD IS FULL OF BABIES, the TES information book award for WHAT'S UNDER THE BED? and English Association's award for non-fiction for WASH, SCRUB, BRUSH. HOW DID I BEGIN? was shortlisted for the Rhone-Poulenc science award.
