Let's Talk About Where Babies Come From: A Book about Eggs, Sperm, Birth, Babies, and Families

Description

An updated 15th anniversary edition of the classic guide for young children on babies, bodies, love, sex, reproduction and families. This clear, lively information book about sex and reproduction covers all the main areas: babies, reproduction, bodies, chromosomes, genes, growing up, love, health and lots more. As before, the information is imparted simply and reassuringly with humorous commentary from an inquisitive bird and a squeamish bee and very friendly full-colour cartoon-strip illustrations. Created by the author and illustrator of Let's Talk About Sex, this forthright and funny book has been newly updated for its fifteenth anniversary.

Award-winning author Robie H. Harris is also a popular speaker who has had plenty of hands-on experience working with children, including as director of an early childhood after-school programme and as a teacher. She is also the author of a series for very young children - "Let's Talk About You And Me". Robie H. Harris resides with her husband in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Michael Emberley attended the Rhode Island School of Design. He has been writing and illustrating award-winning books for children for more than thirty years. His titles for Walker include Let's Talk and Let's Talk About Where Babies Come From - both written by Robie H. Harris. Michael lives in Ireland.

The perfect starting point for discussion. It's reassuring in its approach and the humorous commentary from an inquisitive bird and a squeamish bee will make children feel comfortable with the book, as will the full-colour cartoon-strip illustrations. An excellent book and one that will be used over several years as need arises. * Parents in Touch * An invaluable guide . . . presents all the info you could ever want in a clear and reassuring way. * Made for Mums *
