5.0 out of 5 stars
good sex education book,
By mason62@worldnet.att.net (Sanford, Florida, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Show Me (Paperback)
this book has few words, but tells much. If you, as a parent, are concerned about how your children will leard about "The Birds and The Bees", then this book is just the thing to put your minds at ease. Used in conjunction with you, the parent, it will explain the "Facts Of Life" in a sensitive, unashamed way. You can be assured that your children will gain the knowledge you wish to impart to them in a proper manner, not from "someone" at school (classmate) of off the street. The book is a compilation of photographs which tell the story of sex in a way that even the youngest of readersd can understand. If you are offended by the nude body, then this book may not be for you. But, if you wish for your children to learn about their bodies and the powerful thing they are, then this book is just what the doctor ordered.

This review is from: Show Me (Paperback)
This book may have been ahead of its time, but I'm afraid it might now be a Federal felony in the United States to own this. However, this wasn't originally an U.S. publication. In my world travels, I've grown certain that the USA has a warped attitude about skin, breasts, genitalia and education of children on these matters. This book has a good perspective on these realities, but it starts with the assumption that five-year-olds don't already know what the other gender looks like. In most parts of the world, families take baths together and people swim nude--kids have known what the other sex looks like for as long as they can remember. Thus, I suspect this book is aimed for the American child, but I'm not happy with the presentation.
It seems the family in this book goes from "traditional American" to full-blown nudist in one easy step. The text has an odd sort of baby-talk language to it. One reality of children is that they will want to "explore" the other sex, but I'm not comfortable with pictures of an adolescent girl masturbating a much younger boy. In too many ways, I suspect this book could've been designed to be "soft child pornography." In this respect, I'm happy the photos are black & white, but perhaps they should also be blurry. For all its faults, this book might still be among the best sex education books for young children. Even nudist organizations seem to lack something when it comes to introducing nudity to kids.
