[Catriona Rogers · Rating 4 out of 5]

Original copyright is 1974. I got this from our library, and I found it really useful. It has lots of pictures and simple text, and lets the child ask questions according to their level of development and interest. I put it on the for-children shelf, but it is for parents and children to read together. My daughter was most interested in the puppies & their mothers this time, but she had some basic questions about human development and sexuality the last time we read it (about a year ago).
