Product Description:
Bold illustrations and straight-forward text provide beginning readers with an informative and factual guide about the birth process, the human body, families, and more.
Review:
This thoughtful, innovative, and comprehensive book helps children with issues that are on their minds anyway--and gives all of us the language we need to share with them.
--T. Berry Brazelton, MD, founder of Brazelton Touchpoints Center, Boston Children's Hospital, and Joshua Sparrow, MD, co-authors of "Touchpoints: Birth to Three" and "Touchpoints: Three to Six"

Even if your child hasn't reached puberty, talk with him or her about what lies ahead. If you'd like some help, check out the excellent picture book IT'S SO AMAZING! . . . It could help prepare your son or daughter - as well as reassure you.
--Time Magazine

It's a beauty; it's your privilege to use it. Enough said.
--Boston Globe

As a pediatrician, I know that children have many questions about reproduction, birth, bodies, babies, and families. Finding the answers, in a comfortable, appropriate, and interesting way, is an essential part of growing up healthy in body and mind. This book provides an opportunity for children to find answers to their questions with clarity of explanation, fabulous illustrations, and humor, together with an all-important sense of wonder.
--Perri Klass, MD, Professor of Journalism and Pediatrics, New York University

A cleverly illustrated guide to everything from adoption to zygotes.
--Child Magazine

Genuinely sweet, in a genre in which there's a fairly despicable tendency to be edgy, brash, and cool, as if what kids can put out must be what they need from grownups....sensible, even existential, answers...honest and tender drawings.
--The New Yorker

[A] friendly and sensitive guide for younger children . . . Harris throughout manages to leave no stone unturned in this thoughtful, intelligent, and most importantly, exuberant celebration of the creation and operation of children and adult bodies . . . Parents looking for a way to keep embarrassment to a minimum when discussing sexuality with their young children will appreciate this book.
--Horn Book, starred review, The

. . . this provides sensible, reassuring answers to readers' questions and concerns, and interrupts the rain of information with occasional silliness.
--Kirkus Reviews, pointered review

Indeed, IT'S SO AMAZING! is written and illustrated with such thought that a child can hide way and study it.
--New York Times, The

Another barrier-breaking contribution by Harris and Emberley that seamlessly bridges IT'S PERFECTLY NORMAL and HAPPY BIRTH DAY! . . . An essential guide that will delight and inform and appeal to young readers as well as adults.
--School Library Journal, starred review

A well-loved tool for many parents, and one that has made 'the talk' more fun and relevant.
--Planned Parenthood.org

Emberley illustrates the rich diversity of bodies in a breathtakingly matter-of-fact way.
--Wondertime magazine

It's accurate, non-judgmental and comprehensive, yet there's no danger of information overload because humor is used to leaven the seriousness of the topics presented.
--Syndicated Column - Lynne Burke

Bright, comic-style illustrations featuring a knowledgable bird and an embarrassed bee. . . . Clear subject headings make the text easy to browse.
