Japanese childrens books.

I have started to get more serious about learning Japanese, and I am wondering if anyone knows where I can find Japanese children's books that are actually written in at a child's level (in Hiragana with very little-to-no Kanji)?
I've also been trying to find anatomy charts; simple ones with things like arm, fingers, nose, head, knee, foot, etc., and ones that would be equivalent to a college level 101 Human Biology/Anatomy text book. At least for the practice reading Katakana if the parts share same/similar names to English.

This might be a bit of a late reply but I just wanted to mention that the children's book "A Place Where Sunflowers Grow" is a good book. I found it on amazon in Japanese-English and all of the kanji has furigana over them. Plus, the artwork is beautiful. The content might be a little hard though. "Breaking Into Japanese Literature" is another good book but it is not for children.

You can try reading some manga aimed at children too. Something like "Chi's Sweet Home".

You can try to find a kinokuniya book store. I believe there are several in the U.S.
