Synopsis
This helpful, conversation-provoking picture book is devoted to introducing very young children to reproductive organs. Gently guiding the reader from the difference between body parts everyone can see, such as arms and legs, and parts that no one else gets to see, the author goes on to define "private parts," discuss different nicknames for them ("pee-pee" and "weenie" are two examples), and share the proper names. A host of multicultural children are used to illustrate the names of body parts, what they do, and how reproductive organs will grow. A brief section addresses how babies come to be and how they are born. Accompanied by simple, clear artwork throughout, as well as an author's note for parents.
