This is a "where babies come from" book that's more silly than informational. Willy is a single sperm that's bad at math, but good at swimming. When he beats the other sperm to the egg he turns into a little girl who is also bad at math but good at swimming. A little dumb, but fun.

P.S. I found Where Willy Went on a banned books display. IMHO, it doesn't contain anything that would upset the average kindergartener. You can make out the outline of a penis a couple times and the MARRIED couple "join together" under the covers. Nah bigs. If I object to anything in this book, it's that it perpetuates a myth that the man puts a little person inside a woman, who is just a vessel for said person. Come on, people. We can educate our children a little better than that.… (altro)

This story was not like any other, and yet I found it to be interesting. I understand that many parents do not want their kids exposed to this topic (at least not at such a young age), but I do think that this story puts a different twist on explaining how babies are made. From what I have seen, kids ask where babies come from all the time. I have heard the birds and the bees story, or the one where dad parks his car in mom's garage... all types of things. I think this story tells it how it is, but it is not too inappropriate. I do think, however, that this story should be read to children who are mature and understand more about how things work.… (altro)
