pick4 ⭐ When our young kid gets told a new baby is coming, they wonder how do you get a new baby. This book explores the answer various people give until they get to the truth. This is a fun, tongue-in-cheek story, and I can see it being used for many seasons to come. One of the best things is that it‘s truthful and explores how colloquialisms can be confusing to children.

pickThird material complaint/challenge in two weeks. The parent was shocked that this book contained information on *gasp* making a baby. If only there had been some clue! 😱 If you don‘t like it, don‘t read it, folks. 🤷🏻♀️
I found it refreshingly frank and had already shared it with my own kids. It‘s also well-reviewed and is a nominee on several awards lists. I just wish our edition had the rainbow background. ✌️
pickThe School of Sexuality Education is a UK charity comprising doctors, teachers, activists and artists who visit UK schools to talk about sex, bodies, relationships and identity. This YA book (illustrated by Evie Karkera) aims to answer teens‘ common questions and improve general sex education. There‘s a lot of information and common sense here but the lack of anecdotes (especially on embarrassing topics) means it lacks a human connection.

So I think this was a very well written book for our times. It is “marketed“ towards 10 years olds, and I don't feel like it is appropriate for this age group. Marketing it towards High School students seems much more appropriate.
There are some very graphic and detailed ideas about very adult topics.
In KC area it was challenged by a a group of people wanted to remove it from a public library

Recently this book has been controversy around Kansas CIty. The public library has it in the kids section and I checked it out from the library to see what it was all about.
