Reviews

[Rebecca]

I found this one at the library for my kids to start talking about the human body, particularly the reproduction systems in males and females. My kids are starting to ask questions about their bodies and the differences between boys and girls. I loved this one with pictures and descriptions. (I explained things in my own words a lot too.)

This was a pleasure to read, and some of the little drawings were so cute.
