Great Book March 11, 2008 This book has kept my children reading and asking questions. The language is simple, yet not condesending. The graphics are excellent. I would recommend this book any child hitting the puberty years.

If you want to shelter your child from having knowledge about the variety of human sexuality, don't give this book to them.
Great way to broach controversial subjects February 1, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book contains lots of information on body science, as well as a loving view of different lifestyles. I used it as a way to open a dialog about sensitive issues such as abortion and homosexuality. I am a Catholic mother of three daughters. I want my children to model what Jesus taught-LOVE OTHERS and DO NOT JUDGE. I feel that there are many ways to love others and many ways to create a family. We need peace and understanding in this world. I read this book with my girls and we discussed (and I even made my own notes on the pages) all of the issues and where I stand on them, as their mother and guide. We also discussed that people have different views on these personal subjects, but everyone deserves repect. Good book!
it IS so amazing! December 26, 2007 This is the best introduction to sex ed I've seen - clear, concise and easy-to-read in a very appropriate and inclusive format for younger kids with beginning questions!
Good Introduction to the Birds and the Bees December 11, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this book as an intro to sex education for my 8 year old son. I read many of the reviews posted here before buying it and decided to try it out. I previewed it before going through it with him and only talked with him about things I felt was relevant to him at this point in his life. We did not discuss the homosexual families or go in depth about puberty for girls. I found most of the material helpful and he enjoyed the journey of the sperm. I think it is important for parents to inform their kids about sex education because they deserve to know how their bodies work and what to expect as they approach puberty. Whether we want to face it or not, sex is all around our kids all the time. We can fool ourselves into thinking that they are not aware or not interested but if they are not learning from the parents, they are learning from their environment.
I highly recommend the book for parents to go through with their kids so they can explain things, screen content and answer questions.
