Short Summary

 This book doesn’t just tell kids that it’s definitely not a stork bringing babies into the world, it also educates them on what really happens when a baby is made, plus gives a number of other relevant facts.

What This Book Is About

‘It’s Not the Stork’ by Robie H Harris is an excellent guide for parents who want to get their kids started in discovering how babies are made and knowing about their bodies and growing up. It has information on:

  • Boys and girls bodies as well as their similarities and differences
  • The changes in boys’ and girls’ bodies as they grow up
  • Sperm, eggs and how they’re made
  • How babies develop and how they’re born
  • Different types of families (adoptive parents, step parents, foster parents, same-sex parents)
  • What types of touching are okay and not okay

Reflection and Comments

This book is very comprehensive yet easy to read and a great information book for children. Instead of oversimplifying the discussion, it provides precise and in-depth information on each topic without making it too complicated for kids to understand. It’s also a book that children will continue to come back to time and time again.
