We have made this book for children and parents. In their hands it can be an aid to sexual enlightenment. But above all we hope it will show parents that natural sexuality develops only when children are surrounded from birth onwards by a loving family and environment which does not repress sexuality. We don't believe a child will have "found the answer" to sex simply by looking at pictures in this book. A good understanding requires rather a continuing exchanges between parent and child, a dialogue which helps the child express his questions and problems concerning sex and resolve them. The photographic part of this book is meant as a taking-off point for parents. Internal bodily process such as conception and pregnancy as well as anatomical facts should be presented to the child in simply words by the parents themselves. The text at the end of the body makes suggestions for this purpose. It gives parents information on the development of sexuality and sex education. Will Mcbride (photographer, text in the book).
