By (author) Potter Molly; Illustrated by Jennings, Sarah
Description
From the author of How Are You Feeling Today? and Will You Be My Friend? comes a picture book all about the birds and the bees (sex education). It''s natural for young children to have questions about their bodies and where they came from, but it can seem a daunting task to answer honestly so that they understand the subtleties of puberty, sex, reproduction and relationships, and are comfortable with their bodies. This book uses clear, easy to understand language to answer complex questions about sex and relationships, and covers all manner of tricky subjects from puberty to consent with delicate accuracy and honesty. Filled with bright, fun illustrations and helpful advice for parents and carers, Let''s Talk About the Birds and the Bees is the perfect book for explaining the facts of life to small children.
