I got this book from the library to preview it before purchasing it. I loved the pictures in the book and how it was divided up. I have a problem with one picture though, which I believe will prevent me from purchasing this title. I have NO problem with the pictures of the reproductive tracts, this is basic biology. I DO have a problem with the detailed schematic of sexual intercourse in progress and a full descriptive caption about what happens during intercourse. I find this inappropriate for a book aimed at children as young as 9. I'd rather my children learn about this wonderful God-given act of love and commitment from me rather than from a picture book. I'd appreciate an email from the author as to why he would include this in a book made for young children.

I was taught tha if you don't have anything good to say about someone or something than don't say anything at all -- I say nothing at all!!!!!
