It's simply halarious.

They have fun examples and silly explanations.

I love this book.

Summary: Five Stars...but with a WARNING
Comment: This is a fabulous book, with accurate, concise and important information presented in a manner that can be very helpful to a parent who needs a bit of help explaining sexual behavior and function to their child. However, my hesitation is the age group for which this book is intended. I personally cannot imagine a 4-year-old being ready or interested in half of the information covered in this book. My own child expressed early interest in sex at age 8, which in my humble opinion, would be a better age to which this book would begin to appeal.

I do agree with some reviewers who have said that the cartoonistic illustrations are a bit too juvenile for older children. However, wouldn't it be better to err on the side of boredom or eye-rolling with a slightly older child than to put this information in front of a 4-yr-old who isn't ready to hear and see most of this?

GREAT book for ages 8-12, of course depending on the specific child's interest and readiness.

Summary: Plea From Adult Survivor of Sexual Abuse: Don't Buy Book!!
Comment: I was given this book at age 9 by mom to help me understand sex. Here is the scary thing I was being sexually abused by my adult uncle from the age of 3 until I was 12. This book ended up normalize my abuse by relating every day experiences like jumping rope and being tickled to sex! If you think sexually abuse can't happen in your family I am sorry but it can happen to any family. My parents are both teachers and happily married. Our house was nicknamed the "Cleaver's" by my friends. We went to church on Sunday mornings and both my brother and I sang in the children choir at church. As an adult survivor of sexually abuse I am asking you to not buy this book for your children. Any book that compares sex to childhood activities is not book you should use to teach your children about sex.
