Parts is a hilarious and fun tale about a boy who thinks he is falling apart. After his toes start peeling, his tooth falls out, and he finds fuzz in his belly button, he thinks he will most likely have to be held together by duct tape.

The rhyming scheme of this book is incredible and the illustrations capture the fun-loving nature of the message.
