"A comic book for kids that includes children and families of all makeups, orientations, and gender identies, Sex Is a Funny Word is an essential resource about bodies, gender, and sexuality for children ages 8 to 10 as well as their parents and caregivers. Much more than the "facts of life" or "the birds and the bees," Sex Is a Funny Word opens up conversations between young people and their caregivers in a way that allows adults to convey their values and beliefs while providing information about boundaries, safety, and joy. The eagerly anticipated follow up to Lambda-nominated What Makes a Baby, from sex educator Cory Silverberg and artist Fiona Smyth, Sex Is a Funny Word reimagines "sex talk" for the twenty-first century."--… (plus d'informations)

An excellent starter resource for families and young kids (maybe 5 - 13? somewhere around that age range, though teenagers could definitely learn a thing or two as well).

Note - if an updated version was released in 2022 or 2023, I would likely rate it 5 stars, it just so happens that I'm reading it 7 years after the initial publication and some language and framing has shifted (

Lovely! A beautiful book about sex for kids that focuses on feelings and respect. The language and illustrations are really inclusive. I feel like this could be an essential book for some kids. (

This was great. Covered just about all the sex topics that my kid (7yo) was coming up with plus a few that I thought were important. [return][return]Parent Advisory: If you get this book (or any other sex-ed book) for your kid, be sure that you tell your kid not to take it to school and show it to a bunch of other second graders in the after-school program, because although this book is completely age-appropriate, and the kids themselves will be cool with it because they are super curious, the parents might not be ready to go there yet, and then you will have to have uncomfortable conversations with parents.

A great book that covers gender identity, sexuality, and the beautiful uniqueness that our bodies are. Body positive and LGBT friendly, I can't recommend this book enough. (
