I bought this book almost twenty years ago for my daughter. It does tend to suggest that sex is done purely for the sake of having children and focuses on mum and dad but, if you overlook that, it was a wonderful book, very funny. Not only did my daughter learn from it, half the kids in the neighbourhood did too when they read it while visiting her. It presents sex in such easy to handle and fun way that my daughter used to get me to read it as her bedtime story quite regularly. It's the ideal book to ensure that your child doesn't grow up in ignorance with the inevitable myths that circulate when you are young, often causing wrong decisions and awkward moments.

A great book for when your child askes about themselfs. You can read this book with your child or simply give it to them to read themselfs as it is very easily read. The book holds no bounds and tells it as it is. With great comical pictures it is a must for all parents and young children.

This was the book given to me by my mum, in the 80's when I was 9. I remember it with fondness and recall that it covered all the questions I had at the time; it also had quite sweet pictures to accompany the information which didn't gross me out as much as photos may have done.
However, I am aware that some points may seem a little dated: for example, it suggests the parents are married when a baby is conceived.
All in all an informative book that seemed age-appropriate for myself -and later on, my sister.

Where did I come from
Badly written I could not show this item to my child. Very disappointing! It was not well laid out and it did not look professional, some of the wording was very strange

This book is wonderful, healthy and appropriate
This was the book I was brought up with, and it has given me nearly 40 years of a healthy attitude to human sexuality, and great respect for my body and my partners. Read more

This book is nothing short of inappropriate! For the age group this book is aimed at, the information is excessive and overly graphic. Read more
