It's So Amazing!

A Book about Eggs, Sperm, Birth, Babies, and Families

Most kids are curious about the difference between girls and boys, where babies come from, and how they enter the world -- and their reactions to the answers can range from bashfulness to fascination! In this now classic body book, a shy bee and an exuberant bird explore all sorts of information about bodies, conception, pregnancy, families, and more in a fun and accessible way for elementary aged children. Harris’ book has been a favorite of sexuality educators for years, and this newly updated version covers topics ranging from puberty, sex, adoption, and adjusting to life with a new sibling.

Harris’ thoughtful, inclusive text and Michael Emberley’s colorful illustrations incorporate all sorts of families: whether your family has two parents, one parent, two parents in separate homes, adoptive parents, or same-sex parents, you’ll find a similar family in these pages. Your kids are also sure to spot children that look like them, since Emberley has depicted children of all races, body types, and ability. Best of all, their positive, informative, and age-appropriate tone will ensure that kids are confident that bodies, birth, and families really are amazing!

Created by the author and illustrator of It's Not the Stork! (ages 4 to 8), this forthright and funny book covers similar territory but with an eye toward slighter older children who are not quite ready for their third book in the series, It's Perfectly Normal (ages 10 and up).
