They say this book could never be published today. And they are probably correct. It is about a little boy Martin who is worried about the size of his penis. He was seen naked in the changing room at the pool and the kids made fun of his small member and now he is worried that it will keep him from being liked and having kids when he gets older. I think this book is very sincere. I very much picture boys I know and knew growing up wondering these things. Before someone gave them the “me and my body” books to help answer all these types of questions. I loved this book, and found it adorable, but oh yeahhhhhhh would lots of parents complain if they found it on the shelf in a children’s room. I loved this book, and I wish could see the questions of childhood that are asked in this books pages, rather than information that should be sacred and personal.… (altro)

A book about coming of age (puberty) and relationships that kids have with one another (girl or boy). I agree that the book would not do well here in the USA, because we don't feel that these conversations should happen anymore. The book is accurate for me because kids don't ask questions anymore. They have been conditioned not to ask, therefore they learn from their peers. And that information is inaccurate.
The book is something to use for parents, but you would have to know the kids in class very well and parents even better. The book could be used in class but need to use it as a springboard to others.
As a parent: we should be reading this at early age so in the near future kids don't have problems.… (altro)

« Que tu sois fille ou garçon, enfant adopté ou pas […], ta vie a commencé avec la rencontre de la cellule de vie d’un homme et de la cellule de vie d’une femme.

Peut-être qu’au moment de cette rencontre, cet homme et cette femme se connaissaient, ou peut-être pas.

Peut-être qu’ils avaient déjà parlé de toi, ou peut-être pas.

Peut-être qu’ils se sont connus juste le temps de cette rencontre, ou peut-être qu’ils se sont aimés pendant longtemps après.

Peut-être qu’ils s’aiment encore aujourd’hui, ou peut-être pas.

Depuis, tu vis toujours avec ces parents, ou seulement avec l’un d’eux, ou peut-être avec d’autres parents.

Peut-être ou peut-être pas.

Mais ce qui est certain, c’est que c’est ton histoire.

Ton histoire à toi.

Elle t’appartient. »
