It's So Amazing: A Book about Eggs, Sperm, Birth, Babies and Families


ACCURACY


Many an irate parent has demanded that this book be pulled off the shelves of their public libraries because they deem this richly informational book to inappropriate for the eyes of their children.  Robie Harris does a wonderful job at taking such a sensitive topic and making it relatable to kids without editing or glossing over knowledge that is absolutely necessary that they learn. One way the reader can feel confident in the accuracy of this book is the number of medical professionals used in as sources.
