Tasting (Learn About)

The human body is amazing! It gives us five different ways to learn about the world around us: through the eyes, through the skin, through the tongue, through the ears and the nose. Thanks to these parts of our bodies, we can see, feel, taste, hear and smell. These are the five senses! Why do bananas taste so good? Why does tickling cause so much laughter? Illustrated with familiar examples, this fun nonfiction set in the Learn About series gives readers a close-up look at the five senses, and it teaches them how each of the senses work.

The sense of taste is one of our five senses. And it is amazing! Among many other things, it makes us enjoy food and recognize many different flavors such as sweet, sour and salty. In turn, it encourages us to eat and helps us keep strong and healthy.
