"This is the book I learned from. It tells you all the real terms and even lets you know what you are going to wind up hearing about your body. I will probably use it for my oldest daughter but not so sure if it will go over with all of them. I am curious as to what the one for boys is like."
"I checked this out from the library when I was looking for a book to give my almost-8 yr.-old. I found the content a little bit too detailed in areas I didn't feel she was ready for yet (birth control, for instance - yikes!! I'm not ready for that!) And it had some anatomical illustrations of boys and girls that I thought could wait a bit longer. So I got the American Girls Body Book instead. This one would be more appropriate for later puberty, I think. It's also a great resource for both moms and dads to read as a refresher on all the great and terrible things that lie ahead!
Side note: There is also the boy version of this book that I look forward to reading in a few years when my sons get that age."
"I really like this book, but I have an old edition which makes some strange assertions about "hermaphrodites." I'd say get a newer volume and make sure it doesn't say any weird stuff."
