Let's Talk About Where Babies Come From

This well-researched American project provides a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to eggs, sperm, birth, babies, bodies and families. Adopting a matter of fact approach, the authors tackle every aspect of sex education, from chromosomes to contraception and from HIV to homosexuality - if only briefly. Section 28 issues here. Using brightly coloured cartoon illustrations, each topic sees a gregarious bird and somewhat embarrassed bee providing humorous comments on all the amazing things described in the book. The book seeks to inform honestly and in an uncomplicated way and it certainly succeeds in addressing common myths and misconceptions. The style, content and layout make it a good book for families to share with their junior aged children.
