Book Description

Publication Date: 2 Feb 2006

Another timeless classic from the creator of Father Christmas Needs A Wee! and The Queen's Knickers.

Willy is a little sperm who lives inside Mr Browne. The trouble is, Willy is one of 300 million sperm and they all want the same prize - an egg. It's lucky Willy is such a good swimmer ...

Hilariously funny, warm, endearing and totally non-threatening - this small masterpiece presents the facts of life to young children in a unique but totally accessible way. A Godsend for any parent faced with awkward questions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great way to explain the facts of life to small children 10 Oct 2007
By Mrs. E. J. Lister
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is fabulous! My 5 year old started to ask about where babies come from last year when I was pregnant with his baby sister; at that time he was happy with a quick "from mummy's tummy". As more and more mum's at school are having babies he has started to ask again and I felt that I needed something simple and none threatening to help him understand. This book is just the ticket. It is written in language they understand and it is funny. I would definatly recommend this book to anyone struggling with the best way to tell their child the facts of life without scaring them half to death!

5.0 out of 5 stars First Class explanation for children of all ages..... 29 Mar 2006
By Mrs. Sjdalton
Format:Paperback
I really struggled with my children's constant questions about where babies come from - because although I want to shelter them from most things I felt that this was a subject they should grow up with knowing what a lovely natural step it is in life rather than becoming a sordid joke in the school playground...this book addresses absolutely everything I wanted it to in such a great way. My children 6 and 4 read it and said 'Oh ! is that what you did mummy ?' and that was the end of the questions.....after all those sleepless nights of wondering what to say !!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great child friendly book!!!! 6 July 2008
By Ms. Sr Fisher
Format:Paperback
I bought this for my 4 year old boy. After having his baby brother and with alot of friends having babies the 'mummys tummy' answer was no longer working. This book was just the trick it is funny even for me and provides a perfect explanation which is honest but still child friendly. I love this book!!!
