esantelmann's review against another edition
3.0
We’ve used the picture books for our kids but I wasn’t as big of a fan of this one. The whole thing was Q&A scripted and felt forced and awkward. I think I’ll just keep re reading it to make sure I’ve touched base with the kids on stuff, but not use the book exactly.

This is book 3 in a 4 part series. Book 3 is written for kids 8 to 11 years old. We came to the series late so have been reading them together, in order, even though our child is 13. As a family we have had many conversations about sex. This book gave some information that was a review for our daughter as well as some information that was new to her. It’s value in promoting questions, answers, and dialogue was tremendous even when uncomfortable.
The chapters are topical. The faith aspects are in line with our biblical and world views. The interaction in the text between the kids and parents is helpful in reinforcing to our daughter that it okay to ask questions and talk to parents. I recommend this series for parents talking to kids for the first time or subsequent times. We can not have zero to one conversation about sex with our kids and feel done. Our kids are receiving messages about sex from the world daily and my hope is that parents are able to converse with kids and walk alongside them as they grow into adults. This series might be helpful to families with that same goal.
