Title: Kids First Book About Sex by Joani Blank, Marcia Quackenbush ISBN: 0-940208-07-5 Publisher: Down There Pr Pub. Date: November, 1993 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $6.00 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.4 (5 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Unparalleled.
Comment: This is a book about sex. That much should be quite obvious from the title, but some people think "sex" + "kids" = "manufacture of babies", which is wrong on its face. Furthermore, this is the only children's book I've seen that gives a reasonable explaination of what sexual behavior is and how it happens. If you're ready to deal with your young child's questions and this book now, you'll save yourself a lot of trouble with your preteen down the road.
Rating: 4
Summary: Only book of its kind: yes, kids are sexual too.
Comment: Probably most parents will find this book to be "too much about sex" for their children - although nothing in the book is inappropriate. This is the only book I reviewed that mentioned nothing about pregnancy (there is a brief mention of fertilization). Instead, it's all about being familiar with your body (there are several drawing exercises, and a workbook is available to purchase separately), good kinds of touching, masturbation, and in general helping the child to decide for him or herself what "sexy" means. There's also some brief discussion about partnerships (heterosexual or homosexual). The drawings are simple lines, and there's very little clinical language. This is a great book for open-minded, sex-positive families to share.
Rating: 2
Summary: A book about sex, not how babies are made
Comment: If you are looking for a book strictly about sex, this will fill the bill. It does not talk about conception. Topics covered include, nudity, being alone, private parts, etc. This book is not designed to be "fun" (my major complaint). The illustrations are simple line drawings and the layout is designed for a child who doesn't need pictures or a story to entertain or interest them.
