1 out of 5 stars Choose another book--this one conflicts with moral values   August 2, 2010
JH (midwest)
1 out of 3 found this review helpful

We feel it vital to teach our young children about such topics as soon as they are ready to fully understand them (age 8 in our opinion) and this we have done, but this particular book contains too many conflicting moral issues for us to use as a text to share with our children. A much better choice for our family was "Amazing You" and "Changing You". We had mild differences with these texts, but they proved to be great discussion starters with the children. "What's the Big Secret" went too far across vital moral lines for us to even consider using as discussion material. To each his own, but we wanted to post in case others wanted a heads-up.


5 out of 5 stars Exactly what I was looking for   July 9, 2010

I got this for my 9 y.o. who has started asking a lot of questions. It was an easy way to get the discussion going. It gave him good information, without being overly clinical and boring, and allowed me to fill in whatever information he still had questions about.

J. Nhan (Austin, TX)
An excellent reference book to help parents in talking with their school age children about sex.
Came highly recommended by a good friend who used it to talk about sex to her children.



4 out of 5 stars Cute book! Great for parents and kids.   March 9, 2010
Julie (California)
There are far too few good quality books about bodies and babies that one can read to young children, but as a sex educator this is one that I like to recommend. Well worth it - and it can help parents become comfortable talking to their kids about this challenging topics.


5 out of 5 stars This should be in your library...   March 1, 2010
Mom of Kangaroo and Moose
Really neat book - my 8 year old has read it a few times now. This is a good introduction if you have a middle-aged child who might be wondering WHAT is the BIG SECRET?

I definitely do not recommend it for younger children - too much information for little ones. Perfect, though, for a second-grader who is starting to hear lots of rumors about bodies and babies.

I recommend that all parents have a variety of books like this for their children to pick up and read in privacy - a minimum of four or five books so children are getting the facts straight from a variety of accurate sources! T
