Harris, R. (2009). It’s perfectly
normal. Boston, MA: Candlewick Press. This is a very informative book about
developing bodies, puberty, sex, and reproduction and now includes topics like Internet
safety, homosexuality and transgender.
There are ample picture but they are all illustrated and sometimes feels
more comic strip or cartoonish. The images are not pornographic, as some
opposition would suggest but rather strictly informative. The book is
recommended for ages 10 and up. My library is for kindergarteners through 5th
graders and while I do believe that the 5th graders would benefit, I
would rather have them wait until next year to get the book from middle school
or best place, their parents.
