It gets pretty descriptive in one part while talking about breeding, particularly mentioning a certain male body part (which is named) being inserted into a female body part in alligators. If your kid already knows about the birds and bees this will probably just cause a giggle fest, if not, they now will. Something, I'm sure, every parent would like to be forewarned on. (less)
