Harris and Emberley established themselves as the purveyors of reader-friendly, straightforward information on human sexuality for readers as young as seven. Here they successfully tackle the big questions . . . for even younger kids." – The Horn Book (starred review) Young children are curious about almost everything, especially their bodies. And young children are not afraid to ask questions. What makes me a girl? What makes me a boy? Why are some parts of girls' and boys' bodies the same and why are some parts different? How was I made? Where do babies come from? Is it true that a stork brings babies to mommies and daddies? IT'S NOT THE STORK! helps answer these endless and perfectly normal questions that preschool, kindergarten, and early elementary school children ask about how they began. Through lively, comfortable language and sensitive, engaging artwork, Robie H. Harris and Michael Emberley address readers in a reassuring way, mindful of a child's healthy desire for straightforward information. Two irresistible cartoon characters, a curious bird and a squeamish bee, provide comic relief and give voice to the full range of emotions and reactions children may experience while learning about their amazing bodies. Vetted and approved by science, health, and child development experts, the information is up-to-date, age-appropriate, and scientifically accurate, and always aimed at helping kids feel proud, knowledgeable, and comfortable about their own bodies, about how they were born, and about the family they are part of.

Book excerpt: This collection of writings on life and love came about through the encouragement of family and friends, and through the advantages of the internet and social media, a mechanism by which a writer may receive instant feedback from a vast audience. I have found the experience of sharing to be mostly uplifting, and I feel fortunate to have made a connection with so many great people who are willing to read and comment on my stories, and who are willing to share from their own experiences; the process has been very motivational. In this book, I have compiled an array of writings on human relationships, on the adventure of life, the promise of love, the value of family and friendship, and on a few other matters of human concern. My hope is that you will find this collection of essays, short stories, poetry, and simple thoughts to be in good spirit, inspirational, thoughtful, and in good humor. Thank you dear readers. Samuel Larson
