My husband and I spent a year preparing for the coming "talk" with our oldest when I came across this series. There is 4 books in all. We have used books 1-3 and have been extremely pleased with how the content and each topic was handled. At first I was worried that some levels where a little more than I was ready for my kids to know but we went ahead and covered each topic in the book. My kids LOVED them and appreciated having all their questions answered so throughoughly and lovingly. The authors do an outstanding job communicating the love God has for them and what His intenstions are for sexuality. I highly recommend these books for children of all ages.

As a Christian Parent raised in a family that never discussed sex, I found this book (and the series) to be a great starting point. It hits all the right topics in a way that communicates a Christian view without using guilt or sounding preachy. Parents should read it themselves, then pass it on to their child. Don't wait for your child to hit puberty before you start talking about this important subject.

La Jolla Presbyterian Church uses this book as the basis forits sixth-grade sex education program. The program has grownremarkably over the last three years. To see how the book is used, go to www.datana.com/mary and use the "Sex Education for Christian Teens" link.

Excellent book for young teens or older. I read it first before I gave it to my daughter. I like the format and the explanation as to why God made our bodies the way He did. Has enough information to educate your child but not too much for a child to know. Love how the scriptures are tied in to the facts on each page. Will have all my children read this book when I feel it is the right time.

First saw this book at a Family Life Weekend to Remember for couples (a highly recommended event). The book is part of a 4 part series, but if your kids are teens already, like ours, then it's good to just be able to buy the book that is for them.

This book series is a must-have tool for Christian parents. The books help children grow into a correct understanding of biblical sexuality. I must say, there were a few things I learned from the books (at 44yo)!

Very good book that explained puberty in a christian manner. My husband and I thought it was a lil too much right now for our 11 year old. So we will wait till he is 13. Good book overall though.

This book had the information but the way it was worded was way to heavy and serious for the age group it is aimed at. They seemed to be trying too hard to sound grown up and knowlegable and just ended up making sex a boring topic.

This series of books was too much too soon for my kids. I have since found something better...Mother's Little Helper and Listen Son.
