Debut picture book author Blair Thornburgh and award-winning illustrator Scott Campbell put their heads together to celebrate one of the most important bones in your body: the skull

You probably don't think much about skulls.
So what's the big deal about them?

Well, every head
of every person
you've ever seen
has a skull inside.

And that includes YOU

This smart, skull-positive story cheerfully dispels any fears kids might have about their skeletons, flipping our view of skulls from a spooky symbol to a fascinating, cool, and crucial part of our bodies.
